Elias Jelert
LEH
Expected back against PSG
Jelert (thigh) remains unavailable for Le Havre's upcoming Ligue 1 trip to Marseille but is expected to return for the following home encounter against Paris Saint-Germain, according to coach Didier Digard, per Clement Lesage of ParisNormandie Sport.
Analysis: Jelert is set to miss his third consecutive Ligue 1 fixture as he continues recovering from the thigh injury that previously kept him out of encounters against Lille and Auxerre. The right-back has yet to receive clearance to return to competitive action, but coach Digard's latest comments suggest he is approaching the final stages of his recovery, with a potential comeback targeted for the upcoming home clash against Paris Saint-Germain. Jelert had started Le Havre's previous three league matches before suffering the setback and has accumulated 279 minutes across four Ligue 1 appearances this season, recording seven clearances, four tackles and two chances created. His continued absence will force Digard to maintain an alternative defensive setup against Marseille, although the defender could soon provide additional options on the right side of the back line if his recovery progresses as expected.
Ruled out against Auxerre
Jelert (thigh) has been ruled out for Sunday's Ligue 1 clash against Auxerre as he continues recovering from a thigh injury, according to coach Didier Digard, per Doyens.
Analysis: Jelert will miss his second consecutive Ligue 1 fixture after previously sitting out Saturday's matchup against Lille due to a thigh injury. The defender has yet to return to team training, suggesting he still needs additional recovery time before being considered for selection. Jelert had started Le Havre's previous three league matches before the setback and has accumulated 279 minutes across four Ligue 1 appearances this season, recording seven clearances, four tackles and two chances created. His continued absence will force coach Didier Digard to maintain an alternative defensive setup against Auxerre, with no definitive timeline established for the right-back's return to competitive action.
Remains absent from training
Jelert (thigh) remained sidelined from Wednesday's team training session ahead of Sunday's Ligue 1 clash against Auxerre, according to Doyens.
Analysis: Jelert has yet to resume group training after a thigh injury ruled him out of Saturday's match against Lille. The right-back had started Le Havre's previous three league matches and has accumulated 279 minutes across four Ligue 1 appearances this season, recording seven clearances, four tackles and two chances created. His continued absence raises doubts about his availability against Auxerre, potentially forcing coach Didier Digard to maintain an alternative defensive setup.
Ruled out with thigh injury
Jelert (thigh) has been ruled out for Saturday's Ligue 1 clash against Lille after failing to recover in time, the club posted.
Analysis: Jelert will miss Saturday's matchup after initially being considered doubtful due to a thigh issue. The right-back has established himself as a regular starter for Le Havre since arriving on loan from Galatasaray during the summer transfer window, starting each of the club's last three Ligue 1 matches. He has logged 279 minutes across four appearances this season, recording seven clearances, four tackles and two chances created. His absence will force manager Digard to adjust his defensive setup against Lille, while the timeline for Jelert's return remains unclear.
Doubtful for Lille clash
Jelert is doubtful for Saturday's Ligue 1 clash against Lille due to a thigh injury, according to coach Didier Digard, per FOOT NORMAND.
Analysis: Jelert has established himself as a regular starter for Le Havre since arriving on loan from Galatasaray during the summer transfer window, making his potential absence a concern for Digard's defensive unit. The right-back has started each of the club's last three Ligue 1 matches, logging 279 minutes across four appearances while recording seven clearances, four tackles and two chances created. His availability for Saturday remains uncertain, with further updates needed to determine whether he'll be fit enough to retain his starting role against Lille.
Claims starting spot
Jelert has started Le Havre's last three Ligue 1 matches after coming off the bench in the season opener and sitting out the second game after his loan move from Galatasaray during the summer transfer window.
Analysis: Jelert has played 279 minutes across four appearances, including the full 90 against Angers and Toulouse. He has recorded seven clearances, four tackles and created two chances, with no goals or assists so far despite being locked in as a starter now under coach Didier Digard.
Joins Le Havre on loan
Jelert will spend the 2025/26 season on loan at Le Havre from Galatasaray, his parent club announced Friday.
Analysis: Jelert will add depth to Le Havre's defensive line, though he shouldn't earn a starting role right away. He has previous stints at Southampton and FC Copenhagen as well as Galatasaray.
