Naldo and Philipp Bargfrede will be out with muscle injuries while Sokratis is fighting a knee problem and Onur Ayik must undergo another operation.
The Brazilian Naldo's bad luck with injuries will not go away. After being substituted in against Mainz and winning 82 percent of his challenges, Naldo will once again miss time. "It's a muscle strain in the right hip. If Naldo could be back with the team in 14 days, that would be good," said team doctor Götz Dimanski. "This is really bitter. I was so happy about my comeback and wanted to help the team in the coming games. We have two games in a week which I will completely miss out," said the aggravated Naldo.
Sokratis suffered his knee injury in the match against Mainz. And the injury to Bargfrede is just as bitter. "I could tell after the game that something was not right," said the Bremen defensive midfielder, who could not however recall how the injury happened. Bargfrede has a muscle tear in his thigh. "It looks like Philipp will miss the same amount of time as Naldo," said Dimanski.
Ayik was hit quite a bit harder as he had to leave training on Friday with pain on his face. And then he was told that he needed another knee operation after just returning from a knee surgery. "Onur will undergo surgery on Thursday," said the team doctor.
