Assists as substitute in victory Wimmer logged an assist on two crosses (zero accurate) and one corner during Tuesday's 2-0 victory over Borussia Dortmund.

Impact Wimmer relieved a busy Omar Marmoush during the 58th and helped double his side's lead within stoppage time. He located an unmarked Lukas Nmecha just in front of net, and Nmecha did the rest into the bottom left to all but seal the impressive victory for Wolfsburg. This was the first match of the league season he appeared as a substitute, so his presence within the XI will be worth monitoring next time out.

Impact Ridle Baku scored VfL Wolfsburg's second goal, logged using an assist by Wimmer. He possesses two assists across the 2022-23 Bundesliga.

Confirmed in starting XI Wimmer is fit and in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Bochum.

Impact Wimmer returns after dealing with an ankle injury that kept him out of last week's match with Leverkusen. The attacker starts straightaway on Saturday hoping to add to his one goal in five league starts.

Available against Bochum Wimmer (ankle) is available for the starting XI for Saturday's clash with Bochum, according to bild.de.

Impact Wimmer is expected to return to the starting XI on Saturday after recovering from an ankle injury. The forward is a strong fantasy option whenever in the starting XI, though it's possible he is eased back into action to avoid re-injuring his ankle. Wimmer had made five starts before picking up the ankle injury, with one assist in that time.

OCTOBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out Saturday Wimmer (ankle) is out for Saturday's trip to Leverkusen, according to manager Niko Kovac.

Impact Wimmer took a heavy challenge during a DFB Pokal clash with Braunschweig and his ankle is too swollen to play Saturday.

Omar Marmoush is the like-for-like starting option, and has shown good form when in the starting XI.

Impact Wimmer created three chances, tying his season-best as he continues his excellent volume.

Wimmer has created seven chances with one assist in five starts after missing a five game run with a head injury.

Out Sunday Wimmer will miss Sunday's match at Union Berlin due to a personal situation, according to Nico Kovac.

Impact Wimmer has already been back in training but with the international break coming next week, he'll skip one game and try to get fully fit for a busy October. Lukas Nmecha will remain the top option on the right wing until Wimmer returns, though Nmecha is more likely to be moved back to striker.

SEPTEMBER 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Training with helmet Wimmer (head) posted pictures of him participating in Monday's training session while wearing protection on his head ahead of Sunday's trip to Union Berlin.

Impact Wimmer looks to be back in full training and may just need to wear a softer style of helmet for a match or two. Should he be able to start, the lineup would likely be shifted as Lukas Nmecha has most recently played on the right wing.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Out after taking collision Wimmer took a collision in training Wednesday and has been ruled out of Saturday's match against Schalke, according to manager Nico Kovac.

Impact It seems likely that Wimmer was concussed or at least dazed by the collision, otherwise this shouldn't force him to be absent for any games. He's recorded one assist through two games but after leaving after halftime against Bayern Munich, Wimmer hasn't been able to complete a full 90. Max Kruse could take Wimmer's place in the lineup as long as needed.

Busy yet again Wimmer made six tackles and sent in four crosses during Friday's 2-1 loss to Bochum.

Impact Wimmer has consistently filled the stat sheet on both sides of the ball for Bielefeld and will be a major loss for the relegation-bound side. The attacking midfielder has already agreed a move to Wolfsburg, where he will compete for a spot in one of the most promising young attacks in Germany. Wimmer will close the 2021/22 Bundesliga campaign against Leipzig.

Busy in loss Wimmer sent in seven crosses (two accurate) during Sunday's 3-0 loss to Munich.

Impact Wimmer sent in seven crosses, but failed to find much end product during Sunday's loss. The forward is doing everything in his power to keep Bielefeld in the Bundesliga, but that is looking less likely every match. Wimmer has already secured a move to Wolfsburg for 2022/23.

Agrees move to Wolfsburg Wimmer will be on the move to Wolfsburg after the 2022 season, Wolfsburg announced.

The striker has three goals and six assists in 22 starts in the 2021/22 campaign for Bielefeld.

Impact After struggling to find the net in the first half, Wimmer came out quickly in the second to find Masaya Okugawa for the goal.

Hopefully he will come ready to play the same way in the next match against Leverkusen.

Impact Wimmer is set to miss Sunday's clash due to yellow card accumulation. The forward will be on the sidelines in what should have been a very winnable match for Bielefeld. Janni-Luca Serra should slot into the starting XI.
