After rounding up Thursday’s press conferences in our first team news summary of the week, we finish the job with a recap of the virtual media gatherings that were held on Friday.
For more detailed information, keep tabs on our predicted line-ups, which will be updated throughout the afternoon.
Our video round-up with Andy and Neale is also available to view below:
Manchester City
🗣️ The exact quote from Guardiola: "Nathan has come back to training on the pitch, alone still, but is closer to coming back with us. Gundo trained just part of the training session today, we will see tomorrow how he feels. The rest are fit."#FFScout #FPL #GW25 #DGW25 #MCFC

Tottenham Hotspur
🗣️ Mourinho on Kane: "I wanted to come here with the best team and the players that could give us more opportunities to win the game and get a good result, but he made the decision based on his feelings. His feelings were that to play this game could be a risk."#FFScout #FPL

🗣️ Jose Mourinho: "I think Reguilon next week against Wolfsberger, home match. Not Gio [Lo Celso]. No, no, no. Gio is still a few weeks away and of course we need him because he gives us lots of qualities and options and we've missed him for a long time."#FFScout #FPL #GW25 pic.twitter.com/gVxazvVayK

Manchester United
🗣️ Solskjaer to the club's in-house media: "We think, or hope, both of them [Donny and Edinson will be fit] but we’re not sure. Maybe one, maybe two, maybe none. It’s one of those tight ones where you’ve got to make a call, probably after training on Saturday."#FFScout #FPL

Leicester City
🗣️ Brendan Rodgers on Castagne/Pereira: "Both of those boys will be available we think. They trained really well today. We’re just having to manage Ricardo. We gave him the rest and a recovery period in midweek & he should come into the reckoning for the weekend."#FFScout #FPL pic.twitter.com/ipuDwNA9Nd

Everton
🗣️ Carlo Ancelotti: "For the fact that we have a lot of games in this period it's important to have all the squad available. This is important, we can rotate a little bit and keep the squad more fresh."#FFScout #FPL #GW25 #DGW25 #EvertonFC

Chelsea
🗣️ Thomas Tuchel: "Thiago will be out for the game, he's not ready. We have some issues with the calf of Christian Pulisic, nothing big, just feels tight. There's a big question mark for Christian."#FFScout #FPL #GW25 #DGW25 #FantasyPL

🗣️ Tuchel on Ziyech being out of favour: "It's my fault, it's not his fault. My hard decisions in the moment for Mason, Callum and Christian in the half-spaces".#FFScout #FPL #GW25 #DGW25 #FantasyPL

Liverpool
🗣️ Jurgen Klopp: "Naby trained yesterday with the team so we have to see what we make of it. Fabinho was not in training. Fab gets closer, Millie gets closer, Diogo gets closer – but not close enough for the weekend."#FFScout #FPL #GW25 #DGW25 #LFC pic.twitter.com/yvD67lIJAK
