VfL Bochum midfielder Ibrahima Sissoko faces a race against time to regain full fitness ahead of Saturday’s Bundesliga showdown with Borussia Mönchengladbach.
The 27-year-old midfielder missed team training on Tuesday as he continues to recover from the intense 3-3 draw against RB Leipzig.
Bochum coach Dieter Hecking addressed Ibrahima Sissoko’s situation, saying, “He is slightly injured and has suffered a bit from the Leipzig game.” However, the manager downplayed the severity, expressing confidence that the French-Malian midfielder will resume training by Thursday and be available for selection.
Ibrahima Sissoko, a key figure in Bochum’s midfield, has made 18 league appearances this season, contributing one goal and one assist. His presence could be crucial as Bochum aim to build on their spirited performances and climb the Bundesliga table.
Fans will be eager to see Sissoko return to action, knowing his dynamism and resilience could prove pivotal in Saturday’s contest at the Vonovia Ruhrstadion.
