"Hugo Larsson will not be returning yet. Unfortunately, Mario Götze is out due to illness,” the Frankfurt coach said in his press conference.

As for the Hessen club's injured summer signing Jonathan Burkardt, Toppmöller hopes a return will come soon enough.

“Jonny is on track, and we hope he can train with us again soon. Elias Baum is still dealing with his medial collateral ligament injury

“It will take a bit longer than with Jonny. Nevertheless, he is also making good progress,” the 45-year-old explained.
