GAME LOG
Ends season with thigh injury
Zimmermann was forced off in the second half of Saturday's match against Dortmund due to a thigh injury.

Subs in, fills stat sheet in loss
Zimmermann had one off-target shot, made four tackles (one won) and six clearances and was shown a yellow card during Sunday's 1-0 loss against Union Berlin.
Impact
Zimmermann was brought early in the game to replace injured Clemens Riedel (ankle) and thrived at the heart of the defense despite being on the losing side. With Riedel set to miss at least eight weeks while recovering from his surgery, Zimmermann will probably rack up starts and display his talent over the next few weeks.

Ruled out after set back
Zimmermann is not in the match day squad to face Augsburg on Saturday.
Impact
Zimmermann had a set back with his back injury in the buildup to the match and fails to make Saturday's squad because of it. The defender has started both matches he was fully fit for and will have until after the international break to recover in time for Darmstadt's next match.

Impact
Zimmermann is still feeling pain in his back and could sit out Saturday, depending on if he could participate in the final training before the match. He's already missed the last three games as his starting center back role is at risk amid his injury problems.

Slated to miss out again
Zimmermann (back) won't be an option versus Stuttgart on Friday after manager Torsten Lieberknecht told reporters, "Also not at the start are Fabian Nurnberger and Christoph Zimmer...
Impact
Zimmerman has been limited to just two appearances for the club this season due to his lingering back problem. If he can get to 100 percent, the defender should be in contention for a spot in the starting XI. In the meantime, Klaus Gjasula should remain in the backline.

ROTOWIRE
Remains sidelined
Zimmermann (back) is out for Sunday's match with Gladbach, according to manager Torsten Lieberknecht.
Impact
Zimmermann is set to miss Sunday's clash after picking up a back injury before the international break. The defender has been a key part of the starting XI and is a significant loss. With Zimmermann on the sideline Matej Maglica likely to get another start.

Out with back injury
Zimmermann (back) missed Tuesday's training session due to a back injury, Hessenschau reports.
Impact
Zimmermann was brought off during a 5-1 loss to Leverkusen due to a back injury and wasn't able to recover during the week off. He's now a true game-time call for Sunday's clash with Gladbach. If Zimmermann isn't fit Sunday it would be Matej Maglica taking over in the starting XI.

Comes off injured
Zimmermann was forced off in the second half of Saturday's 5-1 loss to Leverkusen.
Impact
Zimmermann was forced off in the 70th minute following a duel with Victor Boniface. Zimmermann was replaced by Matej Maglica who would be a candidate to replace the defender if Zimmermann cannot recover following the international break.

Starting Saturday
Zimmermann (back) is in the starting lineup for Saturday's match against Leverkusen.
Impact
Zimmermann picked up the back injury in training this week, but the injury wasn't severe enough to rule him out of this contest. The defender returns to the side after a one-game absence, as he didn't play last week against Union Berlin but went the full 90 in the opener against Frankfurt.

ROTOWIRE
Picks up back issue
Zimmermann picked up a back issue in training and could miss Saturday's match against Bayer Leverkusen, according to manager Torsten Liebernecht.
Impact
Zimmermann had originally missed last match with an illness, but has now picked up a back issue that could see him miss Saturday's match. This means that Clemens Riedel could get the start at center back again if Zimmermann is not fit to play.

ROTOWIRE
Out with illness
Zimmermann was not included in the squad for Saturday's match against Union Berlin due to illness.
Impact
Zimmermann started and went the full 90 in the season opener against Frankfurt last week, racking up five interceptions, three clearances and two tackles, but an illness forced him to sit out against Union. He should return to training next week and have a shot of, at least, making the squad against Leverkusen on Sep. 2.

ROTOWIRE
Still dealing with groin injury
Zimmermann will miss at least one more match with a group injury, according to manager Dean Smith.
Impact
Zimmermann received a rare start two weeks ago when he suffered the injury and now there's a chance he won't play again this season. Norwich are already relegated and it's likely Smith will try to mix things up over the final few matches in order to give some different looks.

ROTOWIRE
Suffers hip injury in training
Norwich City manager Dean Smith said Friday that Zimmermann pulled out of training Thursday with a hip flexor injury.
Impact
Zimmermann is a bit-part player for Norwich as the 29-year-old has featured just twice in the Premier League this season, but he will be questionable for Saturday's clash against Aston Villa with this hip injury.

ROTOWIRE
In match-day squad
Zimmermann (ankle) will be in the squad to face Crystal Palace on Wednesday.
Impact
Zimmermann's last outing for the club came back in March of 2021 when he made a seven-minute bench appearance. Even with the central defender cleared to play, he will be hard-pressed to break into the starting XI with consistency, making him a relative non-factor in fantasy contests.

ROTOWIRE
Still playing with U23s
Zimmermann (ankle) is in the starting XI for Friday's match with the Norwich U23s.
Impact
Zimmermann is still working on his fitness, getting another start with the young squad Friday. He should be back with the senior team shortly, though he isn't expected to be a regular. In fact, these minutes with the U23s may be all he sees this season unless injuries come about on the Norwich back line.

ROTOWIRE
Gets minutes with U23s
Zimmermann (ankle) is slowly making his way back and played 45 minutes with the U23s last week.
Impact
Zimmermann underwent ankle surgery in October and appears to be close to ready. The question is where he fits in the roster, as he's yet to play this season in league play and he's probably the fourth or fifth option at center-back after starting 13 matches the prior campaign.

ROTOWIRE
Yet to get on training pitch
Zimmermann (ankle) is still yet to practice with the team and is likely still weeks away from returning. Manager Dean Smith told reporters, "Christoph (Zimmermann) is not yet runni...
Impact
Zimmermann has yet to get into a game this season after undergoing ankle surgery back in October. Even once cleared to play, the defender shouldn't be expected to jump right into the starting XI and likely will make several substitute appearances first.
DECEMBER 13, 2021

ROTOWIRE
Set for ankle surgery
Zimmermann will undergo ankle surgery next week and will be out of training the next six weeks, according to manager Daniel Farke.
Impact
This was expected to be the case for Zimmermann and it doesn't change much for Norwich. The veteran defender is no longer a regular in the squad and he's simply in the team for depth, as about the fifth center-back option.

ROTOWIRE
May need ankle surgery
Zimmermann may need ankle surgery, according to manager Daniel Farke.
Impact
Zimmermann has been out with the ankle injury since early September and it looks like it hasn't gotten better. Surgery would likely keep him out a couple more months, but even then, he wasn't an option to feature when healthy.

ROTOWIRE
Out with ankle injury
Zimmermann will miss Saturday's trip to Arsenal because of an ankle injury, according to manager Daniel Farke.
Impact
Zimmermann picked up an ankle injury over the break and it will force him out of the squad for at least one match. Of course, he doesn't have much of a role with the team this season and is far down the depth chart for center-backs.
SEPTEMBER 10, 2021

ROTOWIRE
Starting Cup match
Zimmermann (illness) is starting Tuesday's Cup match against Bournemouth.
Impact
Zimmermann is back from his illness and starting midweek, but he remains a backup center-back for Norwich. For now, he's the fourth option, which means he probably won't get many league starts this season unless Norwich become desperate, which may also be possible given early results.

ROTOWIRE
Dealing with illness
Zimmermann is a doubt for Saturday's match against Manchester City because of an illness, according to manager Daniel Farke.
Impact
Zimmermann doesn't have a major role in the team this season, so his absence will only open up a spot on the bench. He battled injuries two years ago and then started just 13 matches in the Championship last season, meaning he may see less time in the new campaign.

Comes off bench in loss
Zimmermann came off the bench and played 45 minutes in Saturday's 2-0 loss against Burnley.
Impact
Zimmermann was supposed to be on the bench for his leadership qualities, but that quickly changed in the loss. There's a chance he makes the starting XI in the finale, taking over for Timm Klose, who was forced into the back line immediately following his season-long injury after the restart.
