Aké sidelined for weeks again at Fenerbahçe

MRI scan reveals right lower leg muscle injury; recovery expected to take 4–6 weeks.

Nathan Aké has been sidelined again at Fenerbahçe after undergoing an MRI scan that revealed a muscle injury to his right lower leg. The Dutch defender had already missed several matches, including Champions League fixtures against Slavia Prague and Liverpool, after being substituted early in the Prague game. He attempted to resume individual training but felt pain from his earlier injury, prompting the scan.

Turkish media reports suggest recovery will take four to six weeks. Fenerbahçe's next realistic fixture for Aké is the home match against Trabzonspor on 13 December, though he may not feature again before the end of the calendar year.
