The full picture
Werder Bremen's sporting director Clemens Fritz said Niclas Fullkrug has been given control over his workload and 'knows exactly what is good for his body', according to Inside Futbol. Fullkrug is on loan from West Ham United.
The German striker has scored seven goals in seven appearances for Werder Bremen, starting every league match under Daniel Thioune. This is an improvement from his time at West Ham, where he scored three goals in 29 appearances.
Fritz noted Fullkrug's experience helps him manage his fitness, and Werder Bremen would welcome keeping him beyond next summer despite no purchase option in his loan deal. West Ham cannot recall him as his loan deal contains no recall clause.
