Germany centre-back Mats Hummels has explained why he missed Monday's training session.
Germany centre-back Mats Hummels has delivered an update on the knee problem that kept him out of Monday's training session.
The 32-year-old sat out of training two days ago, but returned yesterday and should be fit to face Hungary tonight.
"I've been dealing with my knee for a while now," Hummels told reporters at a press conference on Tuesday and added:
"Fortunately, I have the best possible care available here and the doctors and physios are working hard on it. During the game, the pain gets worse sometimes, but it shouldn’t have an impact on my performances.
"I might sit out a few training sessions now and then, but that's just to manage the workload."
Hummels has started both of Germany's Euro 2020 fixtures so far.
