Ahead of their important away game at 1. FSV Mainz 05 on Saturday, Werder’s head coach Alexander Nouri will this week be pleased to welcome back some key players to his squad. Florian Grillitsch, who sustained a shoulder injury whilst training in Spain during the winter break, is back with the first team, while Philipp Bargfrede, another important player, should make his return to training over the next couple of days. “Florian’s shoulder injury is completely healed. Philipp will be slowly re-introduced to first-team training, but we have to be patient whilst he completes his recovery,” explained team doctor Phillip Heitmann.

Patience is also the name of game with regard to Jaroslav Drobny. On Monday, the Czech goalkeeper completed an individual training session with the rehab coach Jens Beulke. “We have to wait and see how he progresses from here. Eventually a decision will be made on when Jaro can return to first-team training,” said Heitmann.

Milos Veljkovic, however, has been given the all clear. The Serbia U21 international, who had to be replaced at half-time on Saturday due to injury, took part in the team’s run through Bürgerpark on Sunday.
