Fullkrug's Body Control Fuels Bremen Goal Rush
21 Oct
Summary
- Niclas Fullkrug controls his own training intensity at Werder Bremen.
- He has scored seven goals in seven games for his loan club.
- Werder Bremen wants to keep the striker beyond his loan spell.
Niclas Fullkrug, currently on loan from West Ham to Werder Bremen, has found a remarkable resurgence in form. The German international has scored seven goals in just seven appearances across all competitions since the start of the season.
This impressive scoring rate is attributed, in part, to a unique agreement allowing Fullkrug significant control over his training regimen. Sporting director Clemens Fritz noted that the experienced striker "knows exactly what is good for his body," enabling him to adjust training intensity as needed.
Fullkrug's performances have been vital for Werder Bremen, helping them climb to eighth place in the Bundesliga. The club is eager to make his stay permanent, despite his loan agreement not including a purchase option.
West Ham, meanwhile, continues its promotion bid in the Championship without Fullkrug, as his loan deal also lacks a recall clause. The Hammers remain strong contenders, led by captain Jarrod Bowen.
