Lewis Cook
29-Year-Old
AFC Bournemouth
Premier
OUT
Injury Hamstring
Est. Return 5/17/2026
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Cook was rock solid at the heart of the Bournemouth midfield yet again last season, though he was shifted to right-back for a spell due to a variety of injuries. His one goal and three assists is about what he's produced across nearly a decade and that's not going to change in 2025/26. He's never going to be a top offensive contributor, but he should remain a regular after finishing just 22 minutes short of 3,000 last season. His split role on set pieces keeps him relevant in fantasy, though a lack of shooting caps his upside a decent amount.
Could return against Man City
Cook (hamstring) is making progress but will not be available for Saturday's clash against Fulham, with coach Andoni Iraola monitoring his condition ahead of the subsequent fixture against Man City, according to Jack Hillman of Nerve Sport.
ANALYSIS
Cook has been sidelined for around two months with a hamstring issue and while his recovery is heading in the right direction, the Fulham fixture comes too soon for him to feature. Manager Iraola will assess where he is in his recovery after the weekend before making any decision on his involvement against Man City next week, with the midfielder hoping to contribute something meaningful in the final fixtures of the season after a solid run of starts before the injury struck.
