Riza has shared this selection update, as per the official club website: “Perry Ng won’t be available, he’s picked up a slight problem. Callum Robinson will be back in the squad, as will Chris Willock. Anwar El Ghazi has hurt his back and was unavailable in training today. Joe Ralls and Aaron Ramsey, the long-term injuries, they’re still out.”
In terms of the game, he added: “We have a game coming up at the weekend and it’s one that we need to win. If you look at the league and the teams that could drop in there, it’s all very close. We know what we need to do.”

He was handed a new deal last year running until 2026. At the time, he told the club website: “My family are happy here and so am I. I love the City and love the Club. I’m buzzing to get it done. I think this Club has good ambition, as you can see with the summer we’ve had. We just have to show it on the pitch now. I can’t wait for the future.”
The Crewe Alexandra academy graduate went on to play 182 matches for the Railwaymen before he made the step up to the second tier.
