+++ Happy birthday to you: This week isn't just about preparing for next season's kick-off against Würzburg on Saturday afternoon (15:30 CEST), it's also a week full of Werder birthdays! Jannik Vestergaard celebrates his 23rd today and is the first of four Werder players celebrating this week. Izet Hajrovic turns 24 on Tuesday, whilst Florian Grillitsch and Luca Zander both celebrate their 20th birthdays on Friday and Sunday respectively. Many happy returns from everyone here at Werder, and we wish you all the best ahead of the new season! +++

+++ West Ham highlights on WERDER.TV: The Green-Whites have remained unbeaten in pre-season! Werder came through 2-1 winners in their eleventh and final friendly against West Ham United in London. Watch full highlights of the excellent performance here! +++

+++ Final touches: This week will see the finishing touches made to the Hawk-Eye system at the Weserstadion ahead of the new season. After cameras were installed back in May, the technology was then further refined in June - and this Monday and Tuesday will see the construction of new goalposts in the Weserstadion to make sure everything is ready for Werder's first home game of the season against Schalke 04. +++
