Dilane Bakwa Injury: Travelling with squad

Bakwa (hamstring) is travelling with the team to Utrecht and should return in Thursday's Europa League clash, coach Sean Dyche said in a press conference, according to Jak Netting from Vavel. "He is in the squad, and then we'll make a decision on it [whether he plays]. Bakwa's still coming back from an injured period."

Bakwa should be back available for Thursday's Europe League clash against Utrecht and could play some minutes after travelling with the squad and likely clearing his hamstring injury. That said, coach Sean Dyche seems to be cautious with him given his young age and will take no risks with him after two months on the sidelines due to his injury. Bakwa has been mainly a bench option this season for Forest and is expected to claim back a similar role once fully back fit.
