Dan Ndoye

Ndoye has been named in Switzerland's World Cup squad and is expected to start on the wing under coach Murat Yakin, arriving at the tournament after a second half of the season with limited playing time.

Analysis: Ndoye contributed two goals and one assist alongside 25 key passes across 37 appearances in all competitions this season, providing consistent attacking involvement despite seeing limited game time towards the end of the campaign with his club. His pace, direct running and ability to take on defenders in one-on-one situations make him a constant threat on the flank, while his capacity to create chances for both himself and teammates gives Switzerland an additional attacking outlet capable of unlocking even well-organized defensive blocks.

Returns as substitute Sunday

Ndoye (undisclosed) is on the bench for Sunday's season finale against Bournemouth.

Analysis: Ndoye has been included in the squad after returning to training with the squad twice, with the final decision ahead of kickoff going in his favor despite coach Vitor Pereira's cautious comments suggesting the club would not take any risks with his fitness for a fixture the manager described as not being a final. The forward had been absent from the matchday squad for each of Nottingham Forest's last three Premier League contests after last featuring on April 16, and his presence among the substitutes is an encouraging step heading into the World Cup with Switzerland in June.
