Werder Bremen started the season preparation for the upcoming Bundesliga season this Monday. The primary head coach Horst Steffen, who is a first division coach at the age of 56, was primarily head coach Horst Steffen, who is at the age of 56. However, Steffen had to digest a first moment of terror at Werder after his first day of training.
With Marvin Ducksch, the best attacker in the last Werder years had to stop the first exercise unit prematurely. The center forwarder suffered a calf injury that has not yet been defined and had to leave the training ground prematurely.
“It chipped in the calf. It’s not nice, that’s not gratifying. But we have to wait for the exact diagnosis,” said the new head coach Horst Steffen after his first working day at the training ground.
The successor to Ole Werner had previously worked successfully at SV Elversberg, which he almost led to the Bundesliga in the past season.
First Werder test scheduled on Saturday
“I also enjoyed regional league with Elversberg. And also enjoyed the Landesliga with Kapellen-Erft. I like to do my work. Nevertheless, there was the situation in which I thought: Horny that I am now Bundesliga coach,” said the former professional of Borussia Mönchengladbach.
It is still uncertain when he will be able to fall back on the native of Dortmund’s Marvin Ducksch. The 31-year-old had collected 18 scorer points in 32 missions in the past season and was considered undisputed in the Bremen offensive under Steffen predecessor Werner.
The first test game of SV Werder may now be missed. This is scheduled for July 12 from 3:30 p.m. at the Lower Saxony Oberligisten FC Verden.
