Yussuf Poulsen Injury: Struggling with thigh issue

Poulsen (thigh) is missing a friendly with Mallorca due to a strain, Kicker reports.

Poulsen is struggling with a thigh injury and hasn't trained in the last week. The forward has a good chance to make it into the starting XI for the season opener against Gladbach, especially with the season not kicking off until Aug. 24. Poulsen was HSV's big addition in the attack, coming off a decade with RB Leipzig where he largely played a backup role, making just two starts last season.
