Werder Bremen Cancels Sept. 5 Friendly With Preußen Münster Over Player Shortage

Club leaders say the current squad is too thin for a meaningful test.

Overview

  • The fixture had been set for Sept. 5 in Oldenburg during the international break against the 2. Bundesliga side.
  • Multiple Werder players are due to join their national teams in early September, reducing availability.
  • Five players are currently sidelined through injury, and Olivier Deman’s sprained ankle was confirmed this week.
  • The squad still lacks signings for attacking and wide roles, increasing urgency in the transfer market.
  • Managing director Clemens Fritz said the club hopes to reschedule the match at Oldenburg’s Marschwegstadion.
