Bayer’s left-back Daley Sinkgraven has overcome his hamstring and is pushing back into the starting line-up
Left-back Daley Sinkgraven could move back to Bayer Leverkusen’s starting line-up after his hamstring tore against TSG 1899 Hoffenheim.
The 25-year-old is “an option”, announced coach Hannes Wolf. Sinkgraven last played in early February. For Paulinho, who has also recovered from a cruciate ligament tear, a mission is still too early. The 28th matchday of the Bundesliga ends with the duel on Monday evening (8:30 p.m.) in Sinsheim.
Before his second game with Leverkusen, the successor to Peter Bosz, who was on leave, left it open whether he wanted to make rotations compared to his debut against FC Schalke 04 (2-1) last weekend. “We just have a very good squad,” said Wolf. There are “very, very good options.” There are no new failures to complain about
With a win against Hoffenheim, the Werkself could catch up with Borussia Dortmund in the table. “We need victories, we need points,” emphasized Wolf, who was loaned to Leverkusen by the DFB until the end of the season and should lead the club into the European Cup. In the past week he and his team have worked “on everything”. “It was a lot of fun. The energy is good.”
