Prior to their clash with RB Leipzig this weekend, Dino Toppmöller gave some positive updates on Eintracht Frankfurt's personnel.
“It's encouraging that Hugo Larsson and Can Uzun joined training today and could be options for Saturday,” he said in his press conference.
“Can has been out a bit longer than Hugo, so we'll have to see how he is. We can welcome everyone except Jonny Burkardt,” he added.
However, the length of top-scorer Burkardt's absence is still unknown which Toppmöller discussed in a rather coded manner.
“With Jonny Burkardt, we have to wait for the MRI, which is still being done as a follow-up, to see how the injury is progressing initially.
“It will probably be a tight year for him,” explained the Hessen club's 45-year-old coach as they gear up for the weekend.
