The BMG trainer even suggested that the German international might start. It looks to be the case that the newly acquired Nathan Ngoumou will also make the bench squad.
Farke still indicated that he had no problems potentially starting Weigl right away.
“He’s at the peak age of his career,” Farke noted of Weigl, ” He’s top fit, experienced and knows this level. Julian has his strengths in the center, brings a very intelligent game, and he can dictate the flow. We have good players in his position, but we need competition there.”
Farke can draw on the full complement of his roster at home Sunday against Mainz. The Gladbach coach emphasized that his team had a tough task ahead of them squaring off against Bo Svennson’s Rheinhessen, whom Farke called “highly intense”.
