Florian Wirtz Advances in Recovery with Individual Ball Training

The Bayer Leverkusen midfielder edges closer to a return but remains uncertain for team training and competitive play.

Florian Wirtz has resumed individual training with the ball, including shooting, dribbling, sprinting, and passing exercises.
The 21-year-old sustained an ankle ligament injury during a Bundesliga match against Werder Bremen on March 8, 2025.
While Wirtz has not yet rejoined team training, Bayer Leverkusen is optimistic about his return for the season's final stretch.
The injury has impacted Leverkusen's Bundesliga and Champions League campaigns, as well as Germany's Nations League matches.
Wirtz's recovery progress comes as speculation about his future continues, despite his recent contract extension through 2028.
