Set to lead front line
Guessand has been named in Ivory Coast's World Cup squad and is expected to provide manager Fae with a direct and physical forward option capable of contributing throughout the competition.
Analysis: Guessand ended the club season having spent time at both Aston Villa and on loan at Crystal Palace, contributing four goal and one assist across 35 appearances in all competitions. The striker's pace, aerial ability and physical presence give Ivory Coast a different attacking profile and his Premier League experience gives him the credentials to perform under pressure.
Makes bench Sunday
Guessand (knee) is on the bench for Sunday's clash against Brentford.
Analysis: Guessand passed his late fitness test after manager Oliver Glasner expressed optimism about his return and confirmed he would need to come through two training sessions before a final call was made, earning a spot in the squad in line with the positive update provided earlier in the week. The forward has primarily served as a rotational piece since joining the club, contributing one goal and one assist across six appearances, and a bench role represents the most logical first step in his return.
