Boubacar Kamara
25-Year-Old
Aston Villa
Premier
OUT
Injury Hamstring
Est. Return 9/21/2025
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Kamara's 2024/25 season was disrupted by a long-term knee injury that forced him to miss the start of the campaign, limiting his ability to build momentum in midfield. When fit, he remains one of Villa's most important ball winners and a key shield for the defensive line. With a full preseason ahead of 2025/26, he'll be hungry to reassert himself into an every-day role that saw him start the final eight matches last season. While good for defensive stats like tackles and interceptions, his upside is capped playing as the deepest player in Villa's midfield.
Several weeks out
Kamara is set to miss two to three weeks due to a minor hamstring injury suffered in Saturday's 1-0 defeat against Brentford, according to The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Kamara suffered a minor hamstring injury in Saturday's defeat against the Bees and is set to miss two to three weeks while recovering from the issue. The French midfielder will likely be back after the international break, and his absence could open more playing time for Emiliano Buendia, with John McGinn and Youri Tielemans possibly playing deeper in midfield in his spot.
