Injury shock at Werder Bremen: Wöber will be out for weeks!
Werder Bremen is fighting for defensive reinforcements after Maximilian Wöber's injury. The focus is on transfers from Isaac Schmidt and Elias Baum.
Injury shock at Werder Bremen: Wöber will be out for weeks!
SV Werder Bremen is faced with an unexpected setback. Maximilian Wöber, who was brought into the team as a new signing, suffered a thigh injury during the cup defeat against Arminia Bielefeld and will be out for weeks. This development opens up a construction site on the left side of the defense that was previously considered stable and needs to be closed. Those in charge now have to react quickly to secure the defense, because the Bundesliga season is just around the corner.
Given the injury-related gap, Werder Bremen plans to push ahead with transfers for defensive replacements. Positive signals are coming from England, where negotiations for Isaac Schmidt, a right-back from Leeds United, have sparked new hope. The transfer had previously failed due to Leeds' search for a suitable replacement, but now the chances of a quick agreement seem to have increased. Felix Agu, who has proven his versatility, can defend on both sides, reducing the need for a classic Wöber replacement.
Elias Baum's future in view
In addition to Schmidt, Werder Bremen has also shown interest in Elias Baum. The 19-year-old player from Eintracht Frankfurt, who was on loan at SV Elversberg last season, brings a breath of fresh air into the game. Under current coach Horst Steffen, Baum has already proven that he has the potential to survive in the Bundesliga. After his return to Eintracht Frankfurt there is uncertainty about his future, but another loan to Werder Bremen seems to be possible. The combination of Schmidt and Baum could effectively close the vacancies on the right wing.
The new Bundesliga season is approaching
While Werder Bremen is working intensively on the squad, the coming season is just around the corner. The Bundesliga starts on August 22, 2025 with a game between Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig. In this first round, Eintracht Frankfurt will also play against Werder Bremen, which raises anticipation for the duel with Baum and the current team. The regular seasons end on May 16, 2026, while Bundesliga 2 opens its doors on August 1, 2025. Werder Bremen could take the necessary steps to get the best start to the new season, for example by signing new talent.
In these exciting times, those responsible at SV Werder Bremen must decide quickly in order to use the best defensive options and at the same time build a competitive team for the challenges ahead.
