Ellyes Skhiri Injury: Won't play opener

Skhiri (undisclosed) is not an option for Saturday's match against Werder Bremen, according to manager Dino Toppmoller. "Ellyes isn't an option yet either."

Skhiri is going ot fall to the sidelines as the club enters the season, with the midfielder not recovered from his undisclosed injury. That said, his return is still up in the air, with the club giving little on his status. He will hope for his return soon, as he is set to see decent time once fit, starting in 26 of his 30 appearances last season.
