Impact It's far from a ringing endorsement that Agu will be available to play Saturday but it could be an indication he will at least be in the squad. If he does play, it would mark Agu's season debut for the club. Even once fit, the midfielder will likely serve primarily as a substitute option.

Spotted in individual training Agu (knee) was spotted training individually Monday but remains to be if he'll be an option for Saturday's match against Mainz.

Given Agu hasn't played since the beginning of the 2022-23 season, Bremen would be wise to stay patient with his recovery, and if he can't go against Mainz on Saturday, then a more realistic date for his return might come after the international break, potentially in a Sep. 17 road contest at Heidenheim.
