Bayern Munich needed a replacement fullback because Josip Stanišić was also out of games, and Alphonso Davies was still recovering from an injury. The team is kept in full swing by the versatile Austrian with three lungs, Konrad Laimer. The former RB Leipzig player can do a lot of different things.

"The boys are having a lot of fun with him off the pitch as well, when you see how he works every day, how integrated he is into the club, and how respected he is," says Christoph Freund, director of sport for Bayern (Servus Nachrichten via @iMiaSanMia). His manner has garnered him a great deal of acceptance. He is a great asset to the squad because of his competitiveness and enthusiasm when playing football. Additionally, he has advanced significantly in football.

The coach, his colleagues, and Bayern itself can rely on Laimer to provide his best effort for the benefit of the team, even if he is benched or put in an unusual position.

The der Klassiker is at the forefront of Bayern Munich's first-half schedule, which is beginning to get pretty hard.

Although Bayern Munich defeated Eintracht Frankfurt before the most recent international break, they still have games against Bayer Leverkusen and SC Freiburg in the Bundesliga, Club Brugge, Paris Saint-Germain, and Arsenal in the Champions League, as well as FC Köln in the DFB-Pokal, scheduled before the end of November.

Earlier this month, the Magpies fell 2-1 against Brighton, but the German international's incredible flick tied the score.

Antoine Semenyo and Justin Kluivert of Bournemouth, Zian Flemming and Loum Tchaouna of Burnley, Chelsea's Moises Caicedo, Aston Villa's Emi Buendia, and Mo Salah of Liverpool are also on the shortlist.

Supporters of the Magpies may cast their votes for Woltemade by visiting here, and voting will begin at 1 pm GMT on Thursday, October 30. The winner will be revealed on Friday, November 7th at 1 pm GMT.

Lisandro Martinez returns to first-team training, giving Manchester United a significant conditioning boost ahead of their Premier League matchup against Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

Lisandro Martinez has returned to first-team training for Manchester United, giving them a significant fitness boost ahead of their Premier League matchup against Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

Due to a serious knee injury sustained during a Premier League match against Crystal Palace, the Argentina international has not played for the 20-time English champions since early February.

However, Martinez has been speeding up his recuperation in recent weeks, and on Wednesday, the former Ajax centre-back was allowed to rejoin his teammates for training.

It is extremely doubtful that Martinez will play for Man United when they travel to Forest on Saturday, but the 27-year-old might return to the team for the match against Tottenham Hotspur on November 9.

Lisandro Martinez of Manchester United resumes training with the first team.


According to Man United head coach Ruben Amorim, "He’s feeling fine," last week. "I do not want to mention a single day or week because the knee is doing so wonderfully.

"I am not sure, but the team's training is about to begin. After that, Licha's rhythm will determine whether he places or not, but he is closer to starting training again.

The Red Devils will not be taking any chances with the Argentine because of the severity of the injury, and his return may be postponed until after the international break in November.

Luke Shaw's place in the starting lineup is now seriously threatened; therefore, Martinez's return is a significant boost for the 20-time English champions. Martinez is an expert in the left-sided role in the back three.

After joining Old Trafford from Ajax in the summer of 2022, the South American has made 91 appearances for the Red Devils, tallying three goals and three assists.
