Trainer Mark van Bommel already hinted at it and has added to the action: Wout Weghorst has lost his base place at VfL Wolfsburg. The Dutch striker starts on the bench in the game with Union Berlin.
“We talked about it. Wout should now have more goals to his name. He Wout would accept it,” said Van Bommel on Friday in the weekly press talk. He has matched the deed to the word. Instead of Weghorst, the talented Lukas Nmecha has a basic place.
Wolfsburg is on the hunt for second place in the Bundesliga against Union Berlin. Van Bommel and co. won the first four games, after that it went less. Nevertheless, a fifth place after eight games is not bad.
Borussia Dortmund leads Germany, followed by Bayern Munich (2nd), Bayer Leverkusen (3rd) and SC Freiburg (4th)
