Marius Wolf
FCA
Right Wingback
Balanced Full Back
May 27, 1995 (31)
Right
6'2"
179 lb
Delivers 10 crosses in draw
Wolf generated one shot (zero on goal), 10 crosses (five accurate) and three chances created in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Union Berlin.
Analysis: Wolf was the primary supply line down the right flank, and his volume of service was the highest among all players on the field in the weekend's clash. The accuracy of those deliveries and his 88 percent pass accuracy show he was involved in buildup as well as in the final third. After six starts in the campaign, he's still looking for his first direct goal contribution. His creative upside is still there as long as he holds minutes on that wing, even though he doesn't usually stay on the field until the final whistle.
Fully fit to play
Wolf (illness) has recovered and resumed full team training ahead of Saturday's Bundesliga clash against Elversberg, according to coach Manuel Baum. "Marius is fit again and part of the team training."
Analysis: Wolf has overcome the illness that recently kept him sidelined and is now back in contention for selection after rejoining his teammates in full training. The defender resumed training Wednesday, and manager Baum's latest comments confirm that he has recovered sufficiently to participate without restrictions. His return provides Augsburg with an additional option on the right side of the defense ahead of Saturday's matchup against Elversberg. Wolf could return directly to the starting lineup, although his involvement will ultimately depend on Baum's selection decisions.
Set to return
Wolf (illness) is expected to return to training Wednesday, Augsburger Allgemeine reports.
Analysis: Wolf is expected to return to training during Wednesday's session. The defender missed out due to an illness, but is expected to be back available for Saturday's trip to Elversberg. Unless the illness is far more serious than expected he should be back in the starting XI.
Ruled out with infection
Wolf (illness) has been ruled out for Saturday's Bundesliga clash against Bayern Munich due to an infection, according to the club.
Analysis: Wolf will be unavailable for Saturday's matchup after developing an infection, although the severity of the illness and a potential return timeline remain unclear. The defender had previously recovered from a minor toe injury earlier in the season and returned to action during a friendly against Saarbrucken, making this a separate setback. Wolf served primarily as a backup right-back last season, starting 12 of his 29 appearances while contributing one goal and one assist. His absence reduces Augsburg's defensive depth against Bayern Munich.
Starts in friendly game
Wolf (toe) is in the starting squad for Saturday's friendly against Saarbrucken, according to the club.
Analysis: Wolf's inclusion in the starting lineup is an encouraging sign after dealing with a toe injury that coach Manuel Baum described as minor, with the club preferring not to take unnecessary risks. Wolf served mostly as a backup option at right back last season, starting 12 of his 29 appearances while contributing one goal and an assist, and his availability for this match suggests the issue has cleared up quickly.
Picks up toe injury
Wolf is dealing with a toe injury, according to manager Manuel Baum, per Augsburger Allgemeine. "Theoretically, they could all play today, but we will not take any risks."
Analysis: Wolf is a new addition to the worries for Augsburg, although it appears to be a minor worry, as the defender is dealing with a toe injury. This will be something to watch, but a return could come very soon with a handful of friendlies coming up. He is more of their backup option at right-back, starting in 12 of his 29 appearances last season while recording one goal and an assist.
