Mild muscle injury

Maximilian Arnold will be out of action for the next few days.

VfL Wolfsburg suffered an injury scare early on in their friendly against Hertha BSC on Wednesday when Maximilian Arnold indicated that he was unable to continue. The captain felt a twinge in the back of his thigh following a corner and had to be substituted off the field. He underwent a comprehensive examination on Thursday, which confirmed a mild muscle injury. Arnold will therefore take things easy over the coming days. It remains to be seen when he will be available for head coach Paul Simonis again.
