GENOut for Lecce contest
Ostigard (lower leg) hasn't been called up for Sunday's fixture versus Lecce.
Analysis: Ostigard will miss the second match in a row due to a knock, but shouldn't have trouble ahead of the World Cup. He had a career year in 2025/2026, scoring five goals, contributing to eight clean sheets and posting 30 interceptions, 215 clearances and 27 blocks in 30 matches.
Long shot for Lecce match
Ostigard (lower leg) hasn't trained a lot this week and is in serious doubt for Sunday's game versus Lecce, Sky Italy reported.
Analysis: Ostigard is trending toward missing another one because of a contusion to avoid excessive risks before the World Cup. Sebastian Otoa would take his place again if that were the case.
Absent versus Milan
Ostigard hasn't been selected for Sunday's fixture against Milan due to a bruise, Genoa relayed.
Analysis: Ostigard suffered a minor injury in training and won't be risked. He'll be re-evaluated next week ahead of the season finale. Sebastian Otoa (back) or Nils Zatterstrom will take his place in the back, while Johan Vasquez is expected to return to the XI after being spared last week.
Fills stat sheet against Atalanta
Ostigard won two of three tackles and had 12 clearances, four interceptions and two blocks in Saturday's 0-0 draw with Atalanta.
Analysis: Ostigard put up impressive numbers while quarterbacking the Genoa rearguard, setting a new season high in interceptions. He has logged multiple clearances in five fixtures on the trot, totaling 34, adding seven tackles (five won), 10 interceptions and three blocks and helping secure one clean sheet over that span.
