At HSV, the once again overcrowded injury list is at least beginning to clear, albeit in small steps. Two players are working intensively on their return.

Both Yussuf Poulsen and Alexander Røssing-Lelesiit could still have a role to play in the final stretch of the season. There has been initial progress, especially with the young Norwegian, according to a report by Mopo. Røssing-Lelesiit has been out since the end of January with a serious syndesmosis ligament tear, but in recent weeks he has fought his way back closer to the team with the help of modern rehab methods.

Now the next step is coming up: he is expected to return to the pitch for the first time later this week. For now, light running sessions are on the agenda. A competitive comeback cannot yet be planned in concrete terms, but at HSV there is hope that the 19-year-old could become an option again on one of the final matchdays.

HSV: Poulsen “is doing everything he can to be fit”

The situation is somewhat different for captain Poulsen. The Dane is dealing with a muscle fiber tear in his thigh and has already had to sit out several times this season. Even so, he could soon follow and also return to running training.

His experience in dealing with injuries is playing an important role. Coach Merlin Polzin emphasized that once again. “With his body care and his lifestyle, Yussi is doing everything he can to be fit,” stressed the 35-year-old, adding: “Our doctors and the entire medical department are also keeping a very close eye on him and trying to help him.”

Especially in what could be a tight finish to the season, Poulsen could still become important again, even if it remains difficult to predict an exact return date. If everything goes smoothly, both Scandinavians should return to the pitch this season.
