It was a draining “English week” for Werder, with two matches in seven days last time around. With the fixture list refusing to relent, a few players are having their workloads managed during training this week. “Kevin Möhwald, Theodor Gebre Selassie, Felix Agu and Niklas Moisander will only complete parts of training, but that’s more for recovery purposes,” said Clemens Fritz, talking to the press ahead of the first training session in preparation for Saturday’s clash with Schalke 04.

As it stands, all players who are taking part in at least partial training will be available at the weekend, Fritz said. “We don’t want to take any big risks, it’s a bit more of a precautionary measure.” For Davie Selke and Ömer Toprak, who were taken off with injuries against Hertha BSC, there is still hope that they may be able to feature against Schalke. “We have to wait and see how it develops day-by-day,” said Fritz. More patience will be needed with Ludwig Augustinsson, Patrick Erras, Christian Groß and Niclas Füllkrug, however. “They won’t be available this weekend, unfortunately.”
