Werder Bremen: Victor Boniface and Felix Agu back in action
After their final training session yesterday, it was confirmed that Felix Agu, who'd been out for the past five weeks, is in line to feature against Dortmund.
“Felix is healthy again and therefore a candidate for the position. Both [Agu and Isaac Schmidt] are therefore eligible for a starting eleven,” Niemeyer said in quotes revealed by Deichstube.
Victor Boniface could also get a cameo. The Nigerian striker returned to training in late March, but has been frustrated due to his lack of appearances under coach Daniel Thioune.
The German manager openly admitted to favouring the club's youngsters like Salim Musah, who is a product of the Werder academy.
However, according to the report, Boniface was in good form in training, banging in goals alongside Jovan Milosevic.
Victor Boniface will return to Bayer 04 Leverkusen after his loan spell with Werder. Should he fail to score against Nico Kovac's side, he'd have completed a full club season without a single goal.
