What is Luca Zander up to these days? As of today, Werder's right back can give the exciting answer: training with the first team! After months out, Zander was finally able to return to training on Wednesday to complete his first full session with his team mates. The 19 year olds joy was clear to see as he made his comeback in training.
"I have a good feeling. It's telling me that everything is back to normal", explained Zander, who has not played all season due to injury. In November last year he was in the squad for the first team during the 4-0 win over Paderborn, but his knee problems returned toward the end of the year.

Zander did manage to travel with the squad to the winter training camp to Belek, Turkey, but he had to complete a less intensive training programme. By the end of January, hios training programme had to be reduced even further. "It was really tough, having to train alone in the gym and to be able to see all the others on the training pitch", reflected Zander.
The young and talented defended has lost time during this long spell injured, but he has emerged from it stronger. "Now my aim is to say health and get fit. Then I will start fighting for my place." For now, however, Zander can just look forward to playing again.
