Nadiem Amiri
29-Year-Old
FSV Mainz 05
Bundesliga
OUT
Injury Heel
Est. Return 3/22/2026
Set to miss several weeks
Amiri (heel) is set to miss several weeks to recover from his injury, according to Kicker.
ANALYSIS
Amiri suffered a setback in training with his recurring heel injury and is now expected to be sidelined for several weeks while he recovers. The midfielder has been an undisputed starter and one of Mainz's true leaders, handling most set pieces, so his absence leaves a real void in the lineup. While he is out, Paul Nebel is in line to step into the starting role in the middle of the park and carry a bigger share of the workload.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Aston Villa keeping close tabs
Aston Villa are interested in signing Amiri, according to German outlet Bild.
ANALYSIS
Amiri has been one of the most productive playmakers in the Bundesliga this season, and the fact that he doesn't play for a top team could make a potential transfer easier. Mainz are not keen on parting ways with the 28-year-old midway through the season, however, and they'd be open to negotiating a transfer in the summer instead of January.
