Makes bench Friday Kalajdzic (COVID-19) is on the bench for Friday's match against Leipzig.

Impact Kalajdzic only returned to training this week, so it makes sense that he's on the bench in his return. Assuming he's fit, he should come on at some point for Hamadi Al Ghaddioui and as long as everything goes well, he'll be an option to start the Aug. 28 game against Freiburg.

Rejoins squad Tuesday Kalajdzic (COVID-19) was on the training pitch Tuesday after his period of self-isolation and could be an option against RB Leipzig.

Impact Kalajdzic racked up 16 goals on 68 shots (29 on target) in 33 matches last year and would represent a significant boost to the Stuttgart attack in the lead up to Friday's matchup with RB Leipzig.

Out due to COVID-19 Kalajdzic will miss Saturday's DFB Pokal match due to COVID-19, his club announced Thursday.

Impact Kalajdzic has a decent chance of returning when the league season begins Aug 14 against Greuther Furth, though he can't play in the first competitive match. He scored 16 goals and added five assists last season and without Nico Gonzalez to support him, could go even further as the most important attacker for his team.

Fires three shots Kalajdzic took three off target shots and created a chance during Thursday's 2-0 loss to the Netherlands.

Set to lead country Kalajdzic made Austria's final roster for this summer's Euro tournament.

Impact After scoring 16 goals and providing 5 assists in his first season at the highest levels of club competition, Kalajdzic could be one of the young stars of the tournament. While normally a player with his production gets shut down by a targeted defensive effort, Austria should have enough help through David Alaba and Marcel Sabitzer to prevent that from happening. Additionally, Kalajdzic scored three times in two matches during World Cup Qualifiers back in March, so there's proof his production isn't limited to his efforts at club level.
