SV Werder’s captain Marco Friedl will not be in head coach Ole Werner’s squad for the away fixture against Borussia Mönchengladbach on Friday evening. An MRI scan conducted by team doctor Dr. Georg Tsironis revealed that the Austrian has suffered a minor injury to his adductor.

Despite this, the 25-year-old has not yet been ruled out of Werder’s last game of 2023 at home to RB Leipzig (19/12, 18:30 CET).

Three other Green-Whites will also be absent from team training on Tuesday. Due to knee problems, Milos Veljkovic will complete an individual session. Niklas Stark will be rested, alongside Leonardo Bittencourt, who had to be brought off in the game against Augsburg on Saturday due to thigh muscle problems. It’s planned that the trio will return to team training very soon and be options for the squad on Friday.
