Coach Christian Streich from SC Freiburg is already planning next Bundesliga match day with returnee Maximilian Philipp. The coach ruled out a starting eleven for the 29-year-old on Saturday (3:30 p.m. / Sky) against Werder Bremen, but promised a substitution. “He’s there immediately and is doing well. We don’t have to wait forever,” said Streich. Philipp is “physically in good condition”.

In addition, the Breisgauer hope that the offensive player can build on his performance before moving to Borussia Dortmund in 2017. “He had a great development with us. When he left, he was in top condition,” praised Streich. But he was “not nearly” that good at the following stations at BVB, Dynamo Moscow, Werder Bremen and VfL Wolfsburg.
The environment in Breisgau should help Philipp on the way to old strength. “Maybe it has something to do with the fact that he felt so comfortable here,” said Streich: “An environment like ours does him good.”
