Emiliano Buendia
28-Year-Old
Aston Villa
Premier
OUT
Injury Ankle
Est. Return 11/9/2025
Not available
Buendia (ankle) is not an option for Saturday's match against Liverpool but is recovering quicker than expected, according to manager Unai Emery. "He is not available for tomorrow, but the injury he has is going well. I think with a few days more, he can be fit and available for the next matches, hopefully."
ANALYSIS
Buendia is still not an option from his injury but at least seems to be recovering well, with the attacker only expected to be out a few more days and be fit soon. That said, the midfielder could return ahead of the international break, a good sign after starting in their past two games. Evann Guessand is likely to be added to the starting XI in his place until Buendia is fit again.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set to leave Villa Park?
Aston Villa are ready to allow Buendia to leave the club in the summer, according to Caught Offside.
ANALYSIS
Buendia spent the second half of the 2024/25 season at Bayer Leverkusen, and it seems he's ready to leave Villa Park for good. He shouldn't have a lot of space in the club for the 2025/26 campaign, and Villa would be open to his departure if they receive a bid in excess of £20 million.
