VfB Stuttgart faces a setback in their upcoming home game against Bremen this Saturday, with the dynamic German-born Ghanaian winger Roberto Massimo ruled out due to injury.
Despite making strides in his recovery from muscular problems and returning to partial training, Roberto Massimo's anticipated comeback has been delayed, leaving coach Sebastian Hoeneß without a key player for the crucial weekend fixture.
Speaking on the matter, Hoeneß revealed the unfortunate news on Thursday, stating that Roberto Massimo, who plays a pivotal role as the team's right winger, "will not be an issue for the weekend."
The setback comes as a disappointment for both the player and the club, especially considering Massimo's recent return to training, raising hopes of his inclusion in the squad.
Roberto Massimo's absence adds to the challenges faced by VfB Stuttgart, who will now need to strategize and find alternatives to fill the void left by the winger.
