Hidemasa Morita
31-Year-Old
Hull City
Premier
OUT
Injury Groin
Est. Return 10/11/2026
Expected to miss two weeks
Morita is unlikely to see action in the next league games against Chelsea and Newcastle as he deals with an injury, per manager Sergej Jakirovic, Eddie Lyons of Hayters.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Morita has logged only 45 minutes of Premier League play since moving to the Tigers for the 2026/27 campaign, with injuries keeping him out potentially until after the next international break. Losing the midfielder has been a tough blow to the squad's depth, although his role in the rotation is not clearly defined yet. All of Regan Slater, Matt Crooks (quadriceps) and Lucas Gourna-Douath will be the main options in the central zone until the Japanese is ready to play.
