Impact Volland is still on the mend from his injuries, although he has made a large improvement after training partially with the group.

Impact Volland underwent a minor knee injury earlier in the off season and is still recovering from that issue. He's expected to get back on the pitch before the 2024/25 Bundesliga kicks off, but he will miss a portion of pre-season training so he may not be ready for minutes straight away.

Impact Volland was demoted to Union Berlin's bench Saturday. However, he made a substitute appearance and was given a last-minute penalty to secure a win for the team. Volland failed to convert successfully, but Janik Haberer picked up the pieces for a goal anyway.

Impact Union Berlin needed the three points in Saturday's clash, but they suffered a defensive meltdown in the final stages of the match and conceded two late goals that destroyed their early lead. Volland at least found the back of the net for the first time since December, and the veteran striker will need to be at his best against Freiburg on Saturday, as Berlin are not saved from relegation yet with only one game left to play.

Impact Volland had his chances to take the match over and secure a crucial three points, but he flubbed his lines more often than not. The attacking midfielder just hasn't been up to his best throughout the season. Volland will hope to get back to his best before the end of the season as Union try to avoid a disappointing relegation.

Comes off bench in loss Volland registered one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 2-0 loss against RB Leipzig.
Impact Volland came off the bench and played 32 minutes in midfield during Sunday's loss. The attacking midfielder may need to move further back into the midfield with the acquisition of Yorbe Vertessen. Volland has struggled up top but he may offer more value in a deeper-lying role where he can focus on chance creation behind the front two.

Forced off early Volland (leg) was forced off during Wednesday's clash with Munich due to an apparent injury.
Impact Volland came off inside the opening 30 minutes due to the injury. It's a tough blow for a Union side already struggling to score, especially with the departure of David Fofana. Kevin Behrens will be the top option while Volland is sidelined, though Behrens is far less mobile and tends to only be a set-piece threat.
JANUARY 24 • ROTOWIRE
