Ellyes Skhiri News: Returns to bench

Skhiri (undisclosed) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Hoffenheim.

Skhiri has been cleared to return but will only start Saturday's match on the bench. He had been dealing with undisclosed issues and passed a late fitness test after resuming training this week. With the club taking a cautious approach, he may be eased back into action despite starting 26 times last season and being a key player of the midfield of the eagles.
