Cedric Itten - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates | FOX Sports

Set to resume training Itten is expected to return to full training with Switzerland on Monday after missing Saturday's Nations League clash against Slovenia due to a foot knock, according to the club.

Impact Itten picked up the issue during Switzerland training but appears to have avoided a significant injury, with his return to regular work expected after just one missed match. The striker could therefore still be available for Switzerland's remaining international fixture if he progresses as planned. His quick return would also ease concerns over his availability for Werder Bremen following the international break.

However, he's currently relegated to a substitute role for both Werder Bremen and Switzerland, totaling 54 minutes of play in the current Bundesliga season. That might remain his role even if he makes a quick recovery, with Niclas Fullkrug still favored over him.
