Hasn't trained normally Conteh is questionable for Sunday's match against Stuttgart after not training fully this week, according to manager Frank Schmidt.

Impact Conteh could be out for Sunday's match, as the forward is suffering from an undisclosed injury after not training normally this week. This is a huge development for the club, with the forward starting in their past two games. That said, his absence would force a change, adding to the attacking department's injuries. Mikel Kaufmann (undisclosed), Stefan Schimmer (undisclosed) and Yannik Wagner are the club's last remaining attacking options fit, if Conteh misses out.

Limited off bench Conteh scored once and assisted once in 29 appearances (four starts) in the Bundesliga.

Impact Conteh struggled for impact with Heidenheim. He was originally intended to compete for starting minutes, but he was frequently a passenger during his limited chances on the pitch.

Perhaps his latest appearance grants him better opportunities moving forward, as he has irregularly logged starts in 2025. Across the calendar year, Conteh has four shots (three on goal) and five chances created.

This does appear to be a minor issue, with the determining factor if he can play being if there is pain or not. Even if he is fit, he will only serve off the bench, earning all seven appearances off the bench.
