Academy players join first-team training ahead of Oberhausen friendly

Nine players from the Knappenschmiede joined the first team for training on Wednesday morning (23/9), with four from the U23s and five from the U19s involved. Magnus Rösner, Louis Tober, Edion Gashi and Jean-Paul N’diaye represented the U23s, while Kyrylo Khadasevych, Niclas Damberg, Amir El Abdouni, Arian Güzel and Aboubacar Sylla stepped up from the U19s.

Timo Becker completed an individual session in the gym on Wednesday. The centre-back suffered a cut to his ankle during Sunday’s 0-0 Bundesliga draw at home to SV Elversberg. The injury, caused by an opponent’s studs, required stitches. Becker will therefore not feature in Thursday evening’s (24/9) friendly away to Regionalliga side Rot-Weiß Oberhausen.

Kevin Müller is unavailable due to a respiratory infection, while Loris Karius has been given Wednesday and Thursday off.
