Injury Thigh
Est. Return 6/17/2026
Back training with ball
Wimmer (thigh) was spotted training with the ball, marking a significant step forward in his recovery from the thigh issue that ruled him out of Wolfsburg's relegation playoff, the Austrian federation posted.
ANALYSIS
Wimmer ended the club season with four goals, three assists, 16 chances created and 47 tackles across 25 Bundesliga appearances before the injury struck, and his return to ball work is an encouraging development heading into the World Cup. The wide forward, who has completed a transfer to Hoffenheim ahead of the 2026/27 season, will now focus entirely on being fully fit for Austria's World Cup opener against Jordan on June 17.
