2025 Fantasy Outlook
Nmecha is an interesting bet on upside for Leeds United, who are hoping he can get back to some of the goalscoring he had early with Wolfsburg. Significant injuries kept him off the pitch for much of the last two seasons, and he was unable to earn a major role even once back to full fitness. Prior to those injury concerns, he had established himself as one of the promising young strikers in Germany. He doesn't have a guaranteed role with Leeds, but he should get chances in the Premier League. That said, a lot of those early chances will likely be off the bench, limiting his usefulness early in the campaign.
Out with injury
FLeeds United
OUT
December 12, 2025
Nmecha (hamstring) is out for Sunday's match against Brentford, according to manager Daniel Farke. "Sadly, Lukas will miss this game, he's had a rescan and still not completely healed. Everyone else should be fine."
ANALYSIS
Nmecha had to be sidelined last match with a hamstring injury, and after further scans, the forward is still unavailable due to his injury. That said, the club appears to be waiting on the forward to be at full fitness, not risking his health from the bench. The club will go without their regular starter at forward for another match, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin set to start at forward for a third straight game.
