In the home match against Augsburg, Hertha BSC are hoping for the return of Stevan Jovetic Coach Pal Dardai gave an update.
He had actually wanted to be back for last weekend’s derby at Union (0:2), but Stevan Jovetic had tested positive again after returning from quarantine in Berlin.
The Montenegrin has not yet trained with the team this week, but according to coach Pal Dardai he will definitely be in the squad for Saturday against Augsburg. Whether this also applies to Vladimir Darida remained open. The Czech had pulled out last week with a thigh injury.
After the derby defeat, the Herthans are only three points above the bottom of the table. On Saturday, they will face Augsburg, their direct neighbours in the standings, and Marco Richter and Arne Maier will meet their former clubs. In the summer, the two former German national U-team players changed clubs.
There is an option at the end, whether it will be pulled, we will see.
“We are very happy that Marco is playing for us, “, said Fredi Bobic on Thursday. Richter had scored three times in a row recently after a sluggish start and was always in the starting eleven. “There is still room for improvement, but he has arrived well “, said Bobic, while Dardai promised earlier: “He will play a good game. “
On the other hand, Maier has also come in better and better at FCA after teething problems. “Arne is a pretty decent lad “, said Bobic in praise of the loan player, for whom Augsburg have an option to buy. “That’s why we will continue to watch him. In the end there is an option, whether it will be taken, we will see. It’s nice when you loan players out and they also get match practice.
