WolfsburgDeparts with leg injury
Wimmer was forced off in the second half of Saturday's match against Bayern with a leg injury.
Analysis: Wimmer left the match in the 67th minute after receiving lengthy treatment on his left leg, eventually departing with it bandaged above the knee. Wimmer will be a doubt for next week's season finale against St. Pauli which is set up as a relegation six-pointer.
Left field tired, not injured
Wimmer (undisclosed) is not dealing with an injury and was only limping off the field due to fatigue, according to manager Dieter Hecking. "You can see with Patrick that he was injured for a long time. The battery was simply empty after 65 minutes."
Analysis: Wimmer is not going to miss time after a slight injury scare after he was watched limping off the field, instead just tired and needing a break due to fatigue. This will leave the attacker as an option for the club moving forward, a good sign after a recent injury spell. He started in their past three games and will look to return to that role, although he is unlikely to play the full 90.
