Isak Hansen-Aaroen has not yet played a role at Werder Bremen this season. Those responsible are now considering sending the talent to the U23s.
Bremen – And suddenly there was no stopping it. The bench celebrated, even the goalkeeper sprinted across the pitch to join the cheering crowd. So something special must have happened in Cork, Ireland. It actually was: The Norwegian U21 team managed to equalize 1-1 against the hosts at the very last moment, meaning their dream of taking part in the European Championships next summer is still alive. Also Isak Hansen-Aaröen So had every reason to be happy, even if the professional SV Werder Bremen was no longer on the pitch at this point. The 20-year-old had been substituted just ten minutes earlier – but what was more important was that he had actually played again. In the current Bundesliga season, the midfielder is still waiting in vain for his first consideration, even after six match days. The highly valued talent may soon find himself taking a detour to the regional league.
Werder Bremen’s Isak Hansen-Aaroen continues to show physical deficits
“It is important that a player gets match practice – and I am pleased that he has now received exactly that with the U21 national team,” says Peter Niemeyer in an interview with DeichStube. Werder Bremen The head of professional football has stated several times this season that the young Norwegian still has a bit of catching up to do in order to play in the concert of the big players in Germany. The 40-year-old recently said: “Isak has been here for a while now and has to continue to work on himself to reduce the distance to the others.” Above all, the 1.73 meter tall professional’s body could use a little more resilience . “Romano Schmid is a good role model. He has a high level of assertiveness on the pitch. We also believe in Isak.”
The effort is Isak Hansen-Aaröen also by no means to be denied. In the training sessions at Osterdeich he shows his qualities, but the deficits that still exist can also be seen there. Sometimes he is taken out of the action too easily by an opponent – in the practice sessions this takes its toll within a manageable range, but in a competitive game losing the ball too easily could be disastrous. This is also why head coach Ole Werner probably did not take the youngster into account, despite his offensive class, in the sometimes tight final phases of previous league encounters.
Werder Bremen’s Isak Hansen-Aaroen in the U23? “We would decide from situation to situation”
With it Isak Hansen-Aaröen Nevertheless, it is still required and supported in emergencies, and it is not just the U21 national team that will be able to help in the future. Also Werder Bremen U23 in the fourth-class regional league could serve as a test. “We are definitely considering him playing a game in the U23, that is by no means out of the question,” explains Peter Niemeyer. “We would decide on a situation-by-situation basis what makes the most sense for everyone.”
There is no guarantee with this model, although in the past players like Maximilian Eggestein have used the second attempt to really get started after a temporary demotion. The current Freiburger played part of the 3rd league with SVW again during the 2015/2016 season shortly after his debut in the upper house.
Werder Bremen is not yet thinking about a loan from Isak Hansen-Aaroen
Ob Isak Hansen-Aaröen It is not yet clear whether a similar path will follow. But there is hope for everyone involved. And if there are still problems, is a temporary change possible during the winter transfer phase? “Right now is not the right time to think about a loan,” emphasizes Peter Niemeyer. “It’s still far too early for that.” So Hansen-Aaroen still has plenty of time to prove that he can take the next steps in his development Werder Bremen goes.
