Maximilian Wober - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Back on bench Wober (calf) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Hamburger.

Impact Wober passed his late fitness assessment after coach Daniel Thioune confirmed he would make a final call following Friday's training session, recovering in time to earn a spot in the squad despite a lengthy layoff that had come with a few minor setbacks along the way. The staff opted to take a cautious approach given how long he has been out, easing the defender back into the defensive rotation with a bench role rather than throwing him straight into the starting lineup. His return to full fitness will be monitored closely in the coming fixtures.

Impact Wober (calf) is a late fitness call for Saturday's clash against Hamburger as he nears a return from injury, with a final decision on his availability expected closer to kickoff. The defender has been limited by recurring injury issues this season, and the staff are expected to take a cautious approach, though he could rejoin the defensive rotation if cleared.

Back in partial training Wober (calf) will resume partial team training for the first time Thursday, according to the club.

Impact Wober has been stuck in recovery mode for several months after a calf issue proved more serious than initially anticipated, making his return to the training pitch a notable step forward. He is working through only partial sessions at this stage, so a return to the matchday squad for Sunday's clash against Koln may come too soon, but the direction of travel is clearly positive for a player who has been plagued by injuries throughout the campaign. Bremen will monitor his progress carefully over the coming days before making any decisions on his availability.

Still several weeks away Wober suffered a calf injury that revealed to be more significant than expected and will miss several more weeks to recover, according to BILD.

Impact Wober is off the board for now and is expected to miss several more weeks as he works back from a calf injury that turned out to be more serious than initially anticipated. The defender just can't seem to shake the injury bug this season and remains stuck in recovery mode. That said, he mostly operated as a depth piece off the bench for Bremen last campaign, so his absence does not change the starting XI.

Impact Wober is not far from making his return from a hamstring injury that sidelined him since the beginning of the season but will likely do so in the coming fixtures since he remains out for Saturday's clash against Hoffenheim. The defender will likely also miss the midweek clash against Dortmund but his return could happen before the end of the month and will bring a nice additional option to the backline of Bremen.

Remains out Wober (hamstring) is still not an option for Bremen, according to the club.

Impact Wober is still recovering from his muscular injury and isn't yet an option for Bremen as he wasn't spotted in team training yet.

Impact Wober is targeting a return in mid-Novemeber, on either side of the November international break. The defender suffered a torn hamstring at the start of the campaign. It was an injury he aggravated without realizing, which has caused an extended spell on the sideline.

Joining Werder Bremen on loan Wober has joined Werder Bremen on loan from Leeds United for the entire 2025/26 season, his parent club announced Friday.

Impact Wober was heavily linked with a move to Germany, and since both teams were interested in agreeing to a loan move, it didn't take long for the agreement to be completed.

Impact Wober looks to have avoided a severe injury after exiting Saturday's match injury, already training individually Monday. This is fantastic news for the club, as the defender does not look set to miss much time, if any at all, with him being a regular starter in the middle of the defense, having yet to miss a start when available. With that being said, he will hope to return Tuesday in the DFB Pokal, although he will have to undergo testing before the match to solidify his status.

Ruled out against Foxes Wober picked up a knock and won't be an option versus Leicester City on Tuesday, Phil Hay of The Athletic reports.

Impact Wober was just one match back from a previous absence due to a hamstring problem. The defender went 90 minutes in that clash with Fulham on Saturday but now finds himself once again watching from the sidelines. Without Wober in the squad, Junior Firpo returns to the starting XI after sitting Saturday.

Back in starting XI Wober started against Fulham on Saturday, logging four crosses (zero accurate), three tackles (one won) and four clearances in 90 minutes.

Impact Wober was back in the starting XI for the first time since March 18 versus Wolverhampton. With his hamstring problem seemingly behind him, the defender should be in the mix for regular appearances in the starting XI, which will likely see Junior Firpo relegated to a bench role.

APRIL 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

On bench against Liverpool Wober (hamstring) is in Leeds' match day squad for Monday's clash against Liverpool.

Nearing return to action Wober (hamstring) will be a late fitness test ahead of Monday's matchup with Liverpool. Manager Javi Gracia told reporters, "https://www.afcb.co.uk/news/first-team/injury-news-sene...

Impact Wober appears to be nearing a return to action following a three-game stint on the shelf due to his hamstring issue. If given the green light, Wober should reclaim a place in the starting XI after having featured in nine straight contests. In those outings, the central defender garnered six shots (one on target), 36 clearances and 17 interceptions. Given his lack of offensive upside, Wober is unlikely to offer more than mid-range fantasy value.
