Maximilian Wober
28-Year-Old
Leeds United
Premier
Heading back to Leeds United
Wober will return to parent club Leeds United following the conclusion of his loan spell at Werder Bremen.
ANALYSIS
Wober managed just two Bundesliga appearances across 35 minutes this season after the knee injury suffered in preseason severely limited his involvement throughout the campaign, making his loan spell at Werder one of the most difficult periods of a career that has previously included stints at Sevilla, Ajax, Red Bull Salzburg and Gladbach. The Austrian international center-back now heads back to Leeds where his fitness will continue to be assessed, with the club hoping he can return to the level he showed during his 25-appearance Bundesliga campaign at Gladbach in 2022/23 once fully recovered.

Late fitness call Saturday
Wober (calf) is nearing a return but is a late call for Saturday's clash against Hamburger, according to coach Daniel Thioune. "We are trying to gradually get them used to competition again in training. Max's layoff has been very long, so it is inevitable that there will be a few minor issues. We are closely monitoring his progress. We are not ruling any player out. If he has an opportunity and adapts well, he could return to competition. I will assess things again tomorrow after the final training session."

Still out for time being
Wober (hamstring) is nearing a return to competition but remains out for the time being, coach Horst Steffen said in the press conference. "Max is naturally disappointed. Against St. Pauli, he thought he could bounce back. In the end, it's probably just a short absence. Nevertheless, his unavailability is a blow for us, because his contribution is very positive."
