2025 Fantasy Outlook
Doku continues in a rotational spot with City after his second campaign at the Etihad, a part of the attack loaded with talent that is subject to changes nearly every match. This had made it tough for the attacker to truly shape out a starting spot, with even more competition after the addition of Omar Marmoush and Rayan Cherki in the past year. However, Doku has still proven to be effective when used, bagging 20 goal contributions in just over 3,000 league minutes with the club. That combined with his top-tier dribbling provides more upside than most on other teams. If he can lock down consistent starts, Doku could be one of the best fantasy values come draft time, but that all depends on starting minutes.
Suffers calf injury
Doku delivered two assists before suffering a calf injury in Wednesday's 2-0 victory against Galatasaray and is set to miss Sunday's clash against Tottenham, coach Pep Guardiola said in the press conference. "[He is] Injured. The calf. He felt something. [Will he miss the weekend] I think so. Not just tonight all season but he has these problems, muscular. We're so demanding but hopefully in March he can be ready. At Real Madrid he was exceptional, in Norway he could not play because of what happened in Norway."
ANALYSIS
Doku has been dealing with muscular injuries since the beginning of the season and suffered another setback during Wednesday's victory against Galatasaray, as he was forced off with a calf issue before the break after delivering two assists. The forward will likely miss some time while recovering, and his absence is not expected to have a major impact on the starting XI since he started only three of his last six possible games for the Citizens. That said, Rayan Cherki and Antoine Semenyo are expected to see increased playing time in the frontline with the Belgian sidelined.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could head to Barca on loan
Doku could join FC Barcelona on loan until the end of the 2024/25 season, according to SPORT.
ANALYSIS
Doku hasn't played much for Manchester City this season, and the speedy winger would be open to leaving the club with an eye toward returning to the Etihad Stadium in 2024/25. Barcelona are considering the possibility of making a loan move for the 22-year-old, but they would have to part ways with at least one player first to accomplish the move.
