Deniz Undav Returns to VfB Stuttgart Training, Boosting Team’s Prospects for Wolfsburg Clash
VfB Stuttgart received a major boost ahead of their crucial Bundesliga clash against VfL Wolfsburg on Saturday as Deniz Undav returned to full training following a brief illness.
The 26-year-old striker, who missed Tuesday’s training session due to a cold, has recovered sufficiently and is expected to be available for selection against Wolfsburg. Undav’s return provides a timely injection of firepower for Stuttgart, who have struggled to find goals in recent weeks.
"Deniz Undav has returned to training," confirmed a VfB Stuttgart spokesperson. "He is likely to be fit for the home game against VfL Wolfsburg on Saturday."
Undav’s return is a significant development for coach Sebastian Hoeneß, who has been grappling with a number of injury and illness concerns within his squad. The German forward has been in impressive form this season, scoring six goals in 13 Bundesliga appearances.
While Undav is back in training, two other players who missed Tuesday’s session due to illness, Jacob Bruun Larsen and Nikolas Nartey, are still on the mend. However, they are expected to rejoin the team training later this week.
Undav’s Return Bolsters Stuttgart’s Attacking Options
Undav’s presence in the starting lineup would be a major boost to Stuttgart’s attacking threat. The Germany international has a knack for finding the back of the net and has proven to be a reliable source of goals for the Swabians.
With Undav available, Hoeneß has several options to consider in attack. He could opt for a traditional front two, partnering Undav with Serhou Guirassy or Silas Wamangituka. Alternatively, he could deploy Undav as a lone striker, supported by attacking midfielders like Chris Führich and Naouirou Ahamada.
Stuttgart Aiming to End Goal Drought
Saturday’s clash against Wolfsburg is a crucial one for Stuttgart, who are desperate to end their goal drought and climb away from the relegation zone. The Swabians have failed to score in their last two Bundesliga matches and have slipped to 16th place in the standings.
Undav’s return gives Stuttgart hope that they can rediscover their scoring touch. The striker has a proven track record of finding the back of the net and will be eager to help his team secure a much-needed victory.
Conclusion
Deniz Undav’s return to training is a major boost for VfB Stuttgart ahead of their important Bundesliga clash against VfL Wolfsburg. The German forward’s presence gives coach Sebastian Hoeneß more options in attack and will provide a much-needed boost to the team’s hopes of ending their goal drought and climbing away from the relegation zone.
