Shuto Machino News: Makes Starting XI

Machino (calf) is in the starting XI for Saturday's clash against Stuttgart.

Machino missed the season opener against Hamburger SV due to a calf injury but has returned to the starting XI for Saturday's clash against Stuttgart. The forward trained in full with the squad this week and has shown he is fit and ready to contribute. This is a major boost for Gladbach as the newcomer brings versatility and Bundesliga experience to coach Gerardo Seoane's frontline.
