Est. Return 1/31/2026
Still without timeline

OUT
January 16, 2026
Wieffer (toe) remains out for Monday's clash with Bournemouth, Chris Nightingale of Sky Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Wieffer may require more time to recover as he has been sidelined since Dec. 27, and there's little information about when he'll be back despite initial hopes that his injury would be a minor one. This blow will continue to leave Brighton without their top right-back option, so Joel Veltman may retain the starting job in upcoming contests.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Brighton showing interest
M/DFeyenoord
OUT
July 4, 2024
Brighton are interested in signing Wieffer in the summer transfer window, according to The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Brighton are looking to bolster their midfield, especially if Pascal Gross departs the team in the summer, and Wieffer is one of the top options the team is looking at. He wasn't part of the Netherlands team for the Euros due to an injury, but at his best, the 24-year-old is one of the most consistent under-25 midfielders in Europe's second-tier leagues.
