Igor Paixao
25-Year-Old
Marseille
Ligue 1
Available against Nantes
Paixao (calf) returned to team training and is back available for Saturday's trip to Nantes, the club posted.
ANALYSIS
Paixao had been sidelined for two weeks after sustaining a calf injury during the defeat at Lorient, but his return to collective sessions is right on the timeline that had been set. The Brazilian winger has been Marseille's most dangerous attacking weapon in recent weeks and his comeback is a significant boost for coach Habib Beye heading into the final stretch of the season. If deemed fit to do so, Paixao should regain his starting role against the Canaries.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could head to Bournemouth
Bournemouth are being linked with a move for Igor Paixao, according to Fraser Fletcher of TeamTalk.
ANALYSIS
It wouldn't be surprising if Bournemouth need to sign at least one winger this summer, as the likes of Justin Kluivert and Antoine Semenyo are being linked with moves away from the Cherries. Igor Paixao is one of the team's top targets, and the Feyenoord star is likely to be a highly-targeted player due to his recent displays both in the Eredivisie and the UEFA Champions League.
