Ward (calf) likely won't be available for Sunday's trip to Brighton, according to manager Oliver Glasner. "We have a bit of a question mark with Joel Ward - he has some issues with his calf - but let's see how it goes, it looks like maybe he's not available."
ANALYSIS
Ward has yet to make his 2024/25 debut due to the calf injury and it appears he may not be back Sunday. The defender is struggling with the issue and it seems unlikely he plays. Ward has been on the bench a few times, but even when fit it seems he's unlikely to play a big role in Glasner's system.
