After his heavy concussion, Kevin Müller may come back into the goal of the relegation threatened 1. FC Heidenheim. He is doing well again, said coach Frank Schmidt. The 34-year-old will now start with slight training exercises. Therefore, in the last season game of the Bundesliga on May 17, Müller could at least be in the squad against Werder Bremen – and would also be an option for possible relegation games.
“If this is getting a bit better every day from the program that he can do, then it is not excluded that he will be there again next week,” said Schmidt. In the penultimate game at the 1st FC Union Berlin on Saturday (3:30 p.m./Sky), replacement goalkeeper Frank Feller is again between the posts of the table-16. stand. Heidenheim wants to secure the relegation place there with a win.
Müller had initially remained unconscious and then taken to the hospital after a collision against the bottom of the table VfL Bochum after a collision with VfL professional Ibrahima Sissoko. There he was released on Monday.
Approved courage: Schmidt visits Hofmann in clinic
Bochum’s Philipp Hofmann had also seriously injured in the game. The attacker suffered a break, which subsequently triggered a lung collapse. Schmidt confirmed that he was with the 32-year-old in the clinic. “It was important to me to briefly visit a player from the opponent that I have known for years and encourage him.” That is something “a matter of course” for him.

On the last two days of the game, the FCH, Schmidt, emphasized, who can count on midfielder Niklas Dorsch again in Berlin after a yellow lock. Should Heidenheim win and the penultimate Holstein Kiel losing against SC Freiburg at the same time, the team would already have secured relegation plaque 16. The relegation would mean two decision -making games against the third of the 2nd league. On the remaining program of all 18 Bundesliga clubs.
