The Czech unfortunately has no chance of featuring in the next two games, he commented to WERDER.DE: “I wanted to try, but with two broken bones the risk is too high. You have to be careful. Head coach Alexander Nouri added: “The cast will be off in around 14 days and then we’ll wait and see how everything goes.”
Aron Jóhannsson (thigh) and Maximilian Eggestein (adductor) were carrying knocks so trained individually on Monday, it’s likely both of them will however return to full training on Tuesday.
As the week goes on, the players on international duty will start to return to add to the currently reduced numbers in training. Ulisses Garcia was the first international to return to Bremen after he was called up to the Switzerland U21 squad for their away game against Norway on Friday evening. He didn’t, however, feature in the game.
Preparations for Saturday’s game against Bayern 04 will carry on on Tuesday, as the players will have a double session, first training at 10:00 CEST and then at 15:00 CEST.
