“It looks good and very positive,” said Struber in terms of his most successful striker with eight goals. Lemperle had recently failed due to muscular symptoms, but is supposed to get back into team training on Thursday. Meanwhile, Luca Kilian, Jacob Christensen (both cruciate ligament rupture), Mathias Olesen (back complaints), Mark Uth (muscle injury) and Julian Pauli (concussion) will be missing against Elversberg.
After the 1st FC Köln had also rejected the second offer of FC Bayern Munich for Jonas Urbig in the past few days, the goalkeeper initially took part in the team training of the goats on Wednesday. However, the 21-year-old had to stop the almost two-hour unit at the Franz-Kremer Stadium prematurely. Urbig left the lawn after just an hour, before he had got a ball on his head during training with goalkeeper Peter Greiber and teammate Matthias Köbbing.
The serious problems of the warned talent is probably not to be expected, according to which it is not an impact on a continued likely winter transfer to Bayern. Should the change take place this week, FC is facing a goalkeeper bottleneck for the home game against Elversberg. Philipp Pentke, currently number three behind Marvin Schwäbe and Urbig, was missing in training due to illness on Wednesday.
The 1. FC Köln started on Tuesday in preparation for the home game against SV Elversberg. Coach Gerhard Struber had to do without eight of his professionals at the start of the sporting week. In addition to the long -term injuries Luca Kilian, Jacob Christensen (both cruciate ligament rupture), Mark Uth (muscle injury) and Mathias Olesen (back injury), four other players also reported.
On Tuesday, Julian Pauli was again missing, whom those responsible took out the burden again as a precaution after his concussion in early December. With physical intensity, the central defender continues to complain about discomfort. In addition, Tim Lemperle is not yet fit again after his muscular complaints. In addition, due to illness, Luca Waldschmidt reported that Denis Huseinbasic paused due to a calf bruise that he had contracted against the HSV.
