Head coach Florian Kohfeldt can count on a "very positive squad situation“ ahead of the home game against Union Berlin. After the DFB-Pokal game against Dortmund, striker Davie Selke is a doubt for the game on Saturday afternoon. “His chances of making an appearance are about 60/40,” explained Florian Kohfelt at the press conference on Thursday afternoon.

Werder’s new number nine took a blow to his hip flexor in Tuesday’s game against Dortmund and was forced off in the 50th minute.

Michael Lang has returned to training with the squad after getting back from his muscle injury. One player who definitely won’t be involved is Philipp Bargfrede, as his return date has not yet been estimated. The game against Union comes too soon for Theodor Gebre Selassie and Ludwig Augustinsson, but Kohfeldt said, “For them, the Leipzig game is the aim.”
