Option for season finale Schmidt is an option for Saturday's match against Dortmund after not being included in the injury report, according to manager Daniel Thioune.

Impact Schmidt had to exit the last match early but will miss no further time due to the injury, as the defender has been left off the injury list. This will give the club a bit more depth in the defense, although he could see the start with Yukinari Sugawara suspended. That said, the defender has started in only five of his 18 appearances this campaign.

Forced off against Hoffenheim Schmidt (undisclosed) was forced off in the 80th minute of the clash against Hoffenheim after appearing to feel something in his left leg without any contact from an opponent.

Impact Schmidt had only entered the match in the 12th minute before being forced to exit, sitting on the pitch with his hand on his left leg before attempting to continue and ultimately being replaced by Maximilian Wober. The fact that no contact was involved raises concerns over a potential muscular issue, which could mean a more significant absence depending on the results of further examinations. No details have been provided on the nature or extent of the injury, leaving his availability for upcoming fixtures uncertain.

Finds bench role Schmidt (concussion) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Gladbach.

Impact Schmidt is named on the bench for Saturday's clash against Gladbach after completing the necessary protocols. The left midfielder will likely see less playing time moving forward since Felix Agu is back available for the White and Green.

Still doubtful Saturday Schmidt (concussion) remains a doubt for Saturday's clash against Gladbach, coach Horst Steffen said in the press conference.

Impact Schmidt still has to undergo some protocols and remains a doubt for Saturday's clash against Gladbach. The defender will look hope to be deemed fit and clear all the protocols ahead of the game since he is the main starter on the left flank in the absence of Felix Agu (ankle) who remains a doubt as well. If both were to miss the clash, Olivier Deman will be the one starting on the left side of the pitch.

Impact Schmidt is dealing with a concussion that he suffered in Saturday's clash against Leverkusen and that forced him off at halftime. The left-back is ruled out for Tuesday's game against Hoffenheim and his absence will have to be replaced since he started the last four games of Bremen. Olivier Deman is expected to start in the backline until he returns.

Impact Schmidt missed the last two games due to a foot injury but has fully recovered from the issue.

Training partially Tuesday Schmidt (foot) was spotted training partially with the team on Tuesday, the club announced.

Impact Schmidt missed the last two games due to a foot injury but is progressing well in his recovery after being spotted training partially with the team on Tuesday. This puts him in a good position to be available for Saturday's clash against Mainz. That said, the defender has only been a bench option on four occasions this season, so his potential return is unlikely to affect Bremen's starting lineup.

Ruled out against Heidenheim Schmidt (foot) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against Heidenheim, coach Horst Steffen said in the press conference.

Impact Schmidt suffered a foot injury during the international break and is ruled out for Saturday's game against Heidenheim. Coach Horst Steffen did not provide a timeline for his return but suggested the absence would likely be limited to this match. The setback is significant as Schmidt was the natural replacement for Felix Agu (ankle), who is also sidelined. Abdoul-Karim Coulibaly could start at left-back until the injured players return, although the coach mentioned Yukinari Sugawara might switch flanks to offer other lineup options.

OCTOBER 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Training individually Schmidt (foot) is training individually Tuesday ahead of Saturday's match against Heidenheim, according to his club.

Impact Schmidt is getting in some work this week after suffering from a foot injury, as the defender is now training individually. That said, the defender is progressing in his training, although he will need to join the group before he is expected to return Saturday. He is expected to fill the spot of Felix Agu (ankle) at left-back, so this is something to monitor, with the club low in defensive options.

Suffers foot injury in training Schmidt suffered a foot injury in training with the Switzerland squad and is returning to Bremen, the club announced.

Impact Schmidt will undergo further examinations in the coming days in Bremen after withdrawing from the Swiss squad due to a foot injury sustained in training. This is bad news for the white and green, as Schmidt has been gradually establishing himself as a reliable bench option with his new club, scoring once and creating four chances in four substitute appearances in the Bundesliga.

Scores in first appearance Schmidt scored a goal with his lone shot while creating a chance during Saturday's 3-3 draw with Leverkusen.

Joining Bremen on loan Schmidt has joined Werder Bremen from Leeds United on a season-long loan deal, his parent club announced Thursday.

Impact Schmidt wasn't expected to see regular minutes for Leeds United this season. The 25-year-old defender, who made 12 appearances off the bench for Leeds in 2024/25, will add depth to a Bremen side that has struggled with injuries on the defensive side of the ball early in this campaign.
