Lainer was diagnosed with lymph node cancer in July, but the full-back returned to team training in November. The therapy was effective and the disease has since been considered cured. The game against the Go Ahead Eagles from Deventer was Mönchengladbach’s only test before the start of the year next Sunday against VfB Stuttgart. Lainer should be introduced carefully for the time being. He played his last competitive game to date in May and his most recent international match in September 2022 (1:3 against Croatia).
Kalajdzic before moving to Eintracht
An ÖFB teammate should also be seen in Germany again soon. Sasa Kalajdzic’s loan move from Wolverhampton Wanderers to Eintracht Frankfurt is imminent. The only thing that remains open is whether the Frankfurt team will also receive the desired purchase option for the striker. According to information from the “Bild” newspaper, Kalajdzic should train with Eintracht on Monday. He was on the substitutes’ bench in Wolves’ FA Cup draw at Brentford (1-1) on Friday.
