Tim Kleindienst - Poor in front of goal Kleindienst registered five shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 4-3 defeat to SV 07 Elversberg.

Impact Kleindienst only put one of his five shots on the frame, and he created just one chance. In a high-scoring match, that type of inaccuracy can be detrimental. The forward has a good chance to score against Freiburg if he is more accurate, as the side did allow 57 goals in Bundesliga play a year ago.

Franck Honorat - Tallies two assists in start Honorat assisted twice to go with one shot (zero on goal), six crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 4-3 defeat against SV 07 Elversberg.

Impact Honorat did well in his return to the starting lineup, assisting on two of Monchengladbach's three goals. The midfielder has a good shot to assist against Freiburg, a team which has been solid defensively to start this year but did concede 57 goals in 2025-26.

Joe Scally - Scores in loss Scally scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Saturday's 4-3 defeat against SV 07 Elversberg.

Impact Scally was able to put his lone shot in the back of the net on Saturday, though it ultimately wasn't enough for Monchengladbach. The defender will have a challenge looming against a Freiburg team which scored 51 goals in last year's campaign and is off to a good start this season with five goals in two matches.

Hugo Bolin - Gets a brace Bolin scored two goals to go with six shots (two on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and three chances created in Saturday's 4-3 defeat versus SV 07 Elversberg. In addition, he wa...

Impact Bolin scored two of Monchengladbach's three goals, and he was the primary creator for the team in this match. The midfielder has a good matchup looming against Freiburg. Although the club has gotten off to a strong start in 2026-27, Freiburg did concede 57 goals in last season's campaign.

Moritz Nicolas - Serves up late winner Nicolas made six saves and allowed four goals in Saturday's 4-3 loss versus SV 07 Elversberg.

Impact Nicolas was solid for most of the match, keeping his side in the contest with six saves. However, he did let in a late winner which ultimately undid most of his great work. He will likely face similar bombardment again when he faces Freiburg, a team which had 51 goals in Bundesliga a year ago and is at the top of the league table to start this season.

Zento Uno - Remains out Saturday Uno (undisclosed) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against Elversberg.

Impact Uno completed a full week of team training after coach Eugen Polanski had urged caution due to the muscle injury, but has been unable to earn a place in the matchday squad despite the progress made since his absence from the Bundesliga opener against RB Leipzig. Coach Polanski made clear the club still needed to be careful with his workload, and ultimately decided against rushing him into competitive action despite the encouraging training week. His availability for the coming fixtures will be monitored closely as the club continues to manage his return carefully.

Yukhym Konoplya - Progressing with individual work Konoplya (knee) has recently been able to do a lot of individual work again, according to coach Eugen Polanski. "Yukhym has recently been able to do a lot of individual work again....

Impact Konoplya has returned to individual work on the pitch around five weeks after suffering a right MCL injury, completing ball drills, passing, shooting and sprints, though he has yet to resume full team training. His recovery has been progressing quicker than might normally be expected, and he could rejoin team training before the next international break, though his competitive return will still depend on how his knee responds to the increased workload.

Zento Uno - Could be an option Uno (undisclosed) could be an option for Saturday's clash against Elversberg after training fully this week, according to coach Eugen Polanski. "Zento has rejoined the team for tra...

Impact Uno had already been considered too early for the Bundesliga opener against RB Leipzig, with manager Polanski saying last week he was training again but not yet fully up to speed. This full week of training now marks further progress, positioning him closer to a potential return to the matchday squad.

Impact Hashioka was stretchered off during the recent loss to RB Leipzig after a collision with Antonio Nusa, requiring lengthy treatment and undergoing X-rays, an MRI and a CT scan while a potential cervical spine injury was investigated. This update is a significant relief given the concerning nature of the incident, and his continued recovery will be monitored as he works toward a return in the coming weeks.

Fabio Chiarodia - Option against Elversberg Chiarodia (thigh) trained fully this week and is an option for Saturday's clash against Elversberg, according to coach Eugen Polanski.

Impact Chiarodia had missed the Bundesliga opener against RB Leipzig after not being fully up to speed following his return to training, but this update now positions him as a possible option for this match. His continued progress will be worth monitoring as Gladbach manages his reintegration.

Impact Leopold joined Gladbach on a free transfer from Hannover 96 just last summer, having made 124 competitive appearances there with eight goals and 17 assists while serving as club captain during his final season.

Zento Uno - Unlikely against Elversberg Uno (undisclosed) has resumed training after his muscular injury this week, though his integration into the team is likely still premature for Saturday's clash against Elversberg,...

Impact Uno had already been considered too early for the Bundesliga opener against RB Leipzig, with coach Eugen Polanski saying at the time he was training again but not yet fully up to speed. His continued progress positions him closer to a potential involvement, though a full return to the matchday squad may still need to wait a bit longer.

Impact Leopold joined Gladbach on a free transfer from Hannover 96 just last summer, having made 124 competitive appearances there with eight goals and 17 assists while serving as club captain during his final season.

Tim Kleindienst - Managing workload Kleindienst had his workload reduced during Tuesday's training session after completing his first full match in more than 15 months against RB Leipzig, according to Rheinische Post...

Impact Kleindienst trained on the pitch for less than 30 minutes before continuing his work indoors, but coach Eugen Polanski clarified that the striker could have completed the entire session. The reduced workload was simply part of his fitness management after he played around 20-to-25 minutes longer than initially planned against Leipzig. There appears to be no injury concern ahead of Saturday's clash against Elversberg, though Gladbach will continue to carefully manage his workload as he works back toward peak fitness.

Yukhym Konoplya - Making progress in recovery Konoplya (knee) is making progress in his recovery from a right MCL injury but remains unavailable for Saturday's clash against Elversberg, according to Rheinische Post.

Impact Konoplya has returned to individual work on the pitch around five weeks after suffering the injury, completing ball drills, passing, shooting and sprints. He's yet to resume full team training, though coach Eugen Polanski indicated that his recovery is progressing quicker than might normally be expected. Konoplya could rejoin team training before the next international break, but his competitive return will depend on how his knee responds to the increased workload.

Nicolas Kuhn - Joins Gladbach on loan Kuhn has joined Borussia Monchengladbach on loan from Como on a deal running through June 30, 2027, the club announced.

Impact Kuhn struggled to make an impact at Como after joining from Celtic, managing just one goal and two assists across 23 Serie A appearances last season, and the move gives him a route back to regular football in the Bundesliga, a longtime goal of his. He broke out at Celtic, most notably delivering a standout performance against Bayern Munich in the Champions League playoffs, and Gladbach sporting director Rouven Schroder pointed to his versatility, pace, and one-on-one ability as qualities the squad lacked. Kuhn joins a crowded wing rotation alongside Wael Mohya, Robin Hack, Hugo Bolin, and Franck Honorat, so he'll need to compete for minutes despite the fresh start.

Daiki Hashioka - Undergoes medical examinations Hashioka is undergoing further medical evaluation after being stretchered off during Saturday's 3-0 loss to RB Leipzig, according to BILD.

Impact Hashioka was taken to Leipzig University Hospital after colliding with Antonio Nusa and requiring lengthy treatment on the pitch. The defender underwent X-rays, an MRI and a CT scan, with a potential injury around the cervical spine reportedly being investigated, though no diagnosis has yet been announced. Further examinations are expected following his return to Monchengladbach, leaving both the severity of the injury and a potential recovery timeline unclear for now.

Moritz Nicolas - Concedes three in season debut Nicolas allowed three goals while making eight saves during Saturday's 3-0 loss to Leipzig.

Impact Nicolas allowed a goal in the first half and two in the second as Gladbach dropped all three points Saturday. The keeper is the unrivalved number 1 at the club following last year's campaign when he started every league match. Nicolas and company will hope for a better result next week against newly promoted Elversberg.

Kou Itakura - One block, one interception Itakura blocked a shot, made an interception and three clearances during Saturday's 3-0 loss to Leipzig.

Impact Itakura was a part of the Gladbach back line that conceded three times Saturday leading the team in blocks and interceptions. The defender is a stalwart in defense for Gladbach following his 31 starts last season.

AUGUST 29 • ROTOWIRE

Daiki Hashioka - Off after collision Hashioka was forced off in the second half of Saturday's match against Leipzig due to a neck injury.

Impact Hashioka left in the 76th minute after colliding with Antonio Nusa following a cross. The defender was replaced by Joe Scally for the final 15 minutes.

Zento Uno - Won't face RB Leipzig Uno (undisclosed) won't be ready for the Bundesliga opener against RB Leipzig on Saturday, according to manager Eugen Polanski. "Fabio Chiarodia and [Zento] Uno have both trained w...

Impact Uno is back in training and seems to be on the verge of being an option for the coaching staff, but this game will ultimately come too soon for him. Uno could be an option for the Sep. 5 match against Elversberg, provided he doesn't suffer a late setback in his recovery.

AUGUST 27 • ROTOWIRE

Fabio Chiarodia - Won't be ready for opener Chiarodia (thigh) won't be ready for the Bundesliga opener against RB Leipzig on Saturday, according to manager Eugen Polanski. "[Fabio] Chiarodia and Zento Uno have both trained w...

Impact Chiarodia is back in training with the rest of the squad, but he's lacking the fitness to be an option for this contest. The defender could be an option for the Sep. 5 match against Elversberg if he doesn't suffer any setbacks, though.

AUGUST 27 • ROTOWIRE

Franck Honorat - Comes off bench, delivers assist Honorat came on in the 63rd minute of Sunday's German Cup match against TSV Schott Mainz and recorded an assist, the club posted.

Impact Honorat had missed recent training with a calf issue before this appearance, having already left a preseason friendly early with the same concern, though the injury never developed into anything serious. His involvement and productive cameo now suggest he's put those precautionary setbacks behind him heading into the new season. Honorat is expected to be available for Saturday's Bundesliga opener against RB Leipzig after this encouraging return.

AUGUST 24 • ROTOWIRE

Fabio Chiarodia - Set to miss cup opener despite progress Chiarodia has recovered from a torn muscle fiber and recently completed a full training session with Gladbach, though he remains unavailable for Sunday's German Cup opener at TSV S...

Impact Chiarodia's recovery continues to trend in the right direction, but the Italian center back is not yet considered ready for a return to matchday squads. His earliest chance to be included is expected to come at the start of the Bundesliga season against RB Leipzig. Chiarodia is expected to continue building up his training load in the coming days as he works toward that target.

AUGUST 20 • ROTOWIRE

Zento Uno - Ruled out for cup opener Uno remains in rehabilitation from a muscular issue and will miss Sunday's German Cup match at TSV Schott Mainz, according to coach Eugen Polanski, per the Rheinische Post. "He's b...

Impact Uno was unable to train with his Gladbach teammates at the start of the week, instead continuing an individual program, and has now missed the club's last three friendlies as well. His path back to full team training still requires more time, with no clear indication yet of when he'll next be available. Uno is expected to continue his rehabilitation program in the coming days as the club monitors his progress. His continued absence leaves Gladbach without a midfield option who has been sidelined for an extended stretch heading into the new season.
