Christian Gentner has been named in VfB Stuttgart’s squad for the Bundesliga game away at VfL Wolfsburg on Tuesday 18 December (kick-off 20:30 CET). The captain travelled to Lower Saxony with the rest of the VfB contingent after Monday’s training session.
VfB sporting director Michael Reschke: “Everyone reacts differently in such a difficult situation. It was clear from the outset that we would respect whatever Christian decided to do against VfL Wolfsburg and Schalke 04. It says a lot about his affinity with the club and the Gentner family’s remarkable relationship with VfB that Christian is going to play in both matches. His decision deserves a lot of respect.”
