“Didi” agrees to an individual training schedule

After Didier Ya Konan decided not to turn up to training on Tuesday without letting manager Mirko Slomka know in a timely fashion, the two held clear the air talks on Wednesday to discuss the strikers future conduct.

Part of the discussion obviously centred on the Ivorian’s bid to regain full fitness as he is still struggling with a knee problem following a bad tackle during the international break a few weeks ago. After the team doctors evaluate the results of the his medical examinations, in coordination with other specialists, the star striker will be set a traning routine catered especially to his needs. Although he has participated in the matches since, the striker continues to experience a level of discomfort and therefore has agreed to partake in the individual training program in an attempt to get him back to full fitness as quickly as possible.
