Antonee Robinson has not played a major role so far in Fulham’s six games this season, but he is expected to see some playing time this week.
Robinson is supported to see some time in Fulham’s EFL Cup third round draw vs. Cambridge United on Tuesday, confirmed Fulham manager Marco Silva Monday. The national team of the American gentlemen who had struggled behind for consistent playing time in August and the schedule of September after fought back for full fitness.
Robinson underwent a knee operation in May and was not part of the Concacaf Gold Cup schedule of the USMNT.
Silva confirmed that Robinson’s recent absence of Fulham’s 3-1 English Premier League victory on Brentford was not serious and precautions.
“No, it’s not a setback, he comes from an operation and he is a player who should be almost perfect in physical circumstances because this game comes from his athletics and all those things,” Silva said in a press conference on Monday.
“We are going to have a session before the game, and then we will make a decision [on Robinson]”Silva added.” It will probably be [Robinson] Contrary to the game. That was our goal for Brentford’s game to give him a little more days to keep working on his fitness and all that stuff, his confidence and to be able to try to have as many minutes as he can. It is an opportunity for him to be involved, yes. “
Robinson made 38 performances for the Cottagers last season and produced 10 assists in all competitions. The absence of the 28-year-old has led Ryan Sessegnon to fill in the back left, but a healthy Robinson should see him jump back as the number 1 option of Silva.
Robinson could see a strong outing on Tuesday on Sunday in Premier League game when Fulham Aston Villa visits.
