Absentees and Squad Status
Kasımpaşa – Trabzonspor · Injured, suspended, doubtful, newly signed and returning players, each listed separately.
Trabzonspor: confirmed absentees
The players reported as unavailable for this match:
• Okay Yokuşlu — INJURED (long-term). • Arseniy Batagov — INJURED (long-term). • Tim Jabol-Folcarelli — not in the squad. • Ernest Muçi — not in the squad.
Two of the four are central midfielders. That means the midfield three is shaped by necessity rather than preference, and it bears directly on how the match is read.
Trabzonspor: a new signing and a returning player
NEW SIGNING: Mohamed Salah was included in the squad that travelled to Istanbul for the Kasımpaşa match. If used, he will make his first Süper Lig appearance for the club. The reported expectation is that he begins on the bench rather than in the XI.
RETURNING: Paul Onuachu is back in training after the Africa Cup of Nations and is expected to feature.
Because Salah has yet to play a Süper Lig match, no league statistic for him appears on this page — producing a figure from a sample that does not exist would be decoration, not analysis.
Kasımpaşa: squad status
INJURED: Kamil Ahmet Çörekçi is not expected to feature because of injury.
NEW SIGNINGS: Güven Yalçın, Thiemoko Diarra, Ayberk Karapo, Marcus Rafferty, Elson Mendes, Matei Ilie, Jakob Jessen, Kenan Kurtovic and Stann Elysee Dalo joined in the summer, and Adrian Benedyczak's move was made permanent.
Beyond that we could not find a verified match-specific absentee list or travelling-squad announcement for Kasımpaşa. No suspension or doubtful-player information could be confirmed either.
For the same reason we publish no probable XI for this side. Presenting a guess as information would mislead the reader; the page will update itself once the official teamsheet is released.
