Johannsson nears return to full training, Sargent with Werder Bremen first team

Aron Johannsson is still working his way back from a hip issue that sidelined him after scoring a goal in a DfB Pokal match last week.

He did start and play 65 minutes for Werder in their 3-1 victory over VfL Wolfsburg on Sunday, but he’s still not back to full health and trained separately from the first team on Wednesday.

He is expected to be back in full training by Thursday and could start when the club travels to Freiburg on Saturday.

In other Werder Bremen news, 17-year-old Josh Sargent got some practice action with the first team on Wednesday morning,

Sargent turns 18 on February 20, which will make him eligible to sign a professional contract.

  1. I’ve seen plenty of Sargent and while I’m incredibly high on the kid, he will need another year at least to be effective in the Bundesliga. There’s no reason to raise your expectations just yet. Give him some time fans, he’s got tons to learn!

    • Always push to the next level and since ‘he’s got tons to learn’ let him learn at while playing 1st team football not U19.

  2. Wonder what a healthy AJ means in terms of Sargent’s possibility at playing time this season. I thought he probably wouldn’t see any first team mins anyway but now it seems even more of a reach but good luck to both
