Double session:The VfL players enjoyed a day off on Sunday but began the new week with two training sessions on Monday, in which head coach Niko Kovac primarily focused on movement patterns. The next couple of days will follow a simple routine for the Wolves: up to and including Thursday they will train at 11:30 CET (10:30 local time), before switching to 11:00 CET (10:00 local time) on Friday.
Early departure:VfL managing director Jörg Schmadtke, head of scouting Nils Schmadtke and doctors Gunter Wilhelm and Günter Pfeiler all departed Almancil for Wolfsburg on Monday. Dr. Stephan Bornhardt and Heiko Wehe joined the training camp later in the day.
Back in training: After Yannick Gerhardt and Jerome Roussillon both missed the last few sessions to train individually, the duo were back among their colleagues out on the training pitch on Monday morning. Lukas Nmecha was the only player still working individually as he gears up for his comeback. Roussillon completed an individual workout in the afternoon but Gerhardt participated in the majority of team training.
