Wolfsburg Sweat On Fitness Of Felix Uduokhai Ahead Of Trip To Freiburg

Wolfsburg are sweating on the fitness of Nigeria Football Federation target Ohis Felix Uduokhai ahead of their trip to Schwarzwald-Stadion, where they face Freiburg on game week 29 in the German Bundesliga.

The Germany youth international has not featured in a competitive match for the Wolves since January 20, 2018.

Uduokhai missed seven straight games in the Bundesliga due to a knee injury but returned to the match day squad against FC Schalke 04, a game in which he was an unused substitute.

Though the defender failed a fitness test before the meeting against Hertha BSC this past weekend, sporting director Olaf Rebbe thinks his injury will not keep him on the sidelines for a long period.

Speaking to German publication Kicker, he said : ''I think it's not serious, I hope everything goes in the right direction this week, I'm not a doctor, but I have good signals that things are going in the right direction''.

This season, Uduokhai has found the net three times in 19 outings for Wolfsburg in all competitions.
