Bayern Munich’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Daniel-Van-Buyten-c10095 hopeful to play against Bayer Leverkusen – Bundesliga news
Bundesliga giants, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Bayern-Munich-c39081, have received some morale-boosting news just before their Bundesliga clash against Bayer Leverkusen. Their star defender, Daniel van Buyten, is hopeful of returning to action in the upcoming encounter at the Allianz Arena
on Sunday, 17 April.
Reports suggest that the 33-year-old centre-back is likely to feature in the playing eleven after being sidelined for almost two weeks due to a muscular injury. The versatile defender picked up the knock while he was on international duty. Consequently,
he missed matches against Borussia Monchengladbach and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/1-FC-Nuremberg-c38162.
However, Buyten is now looking to make his comeback in the upcoming encounter. Buyten said, “I'm hopeful that I'll be able to play against Bayer Leverkusen.”
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Belgium-c2850 international has played a vital role in the Bavarians back-line since his arrival at Allianz Arena in 2006/07 season. He has made over 100 appearances for the Bavarians and scored 14 goals as well.
The Bavarians are currently placed fourth in the league table, trailing the last UEFA Champions League spot by a solitary point. However, their hopes to lift the Bundesliga title are now far-fetched, as the league leaders, Borussia Dortmund, are a mammoth
14 points ahead of the Bavarians. With 15 points left to play for, Die Roten will be aiming to finish the season in the top three Bundesliga sides.
Die Roten have struggled to perform on the field this season and their off-field issues were also disappointing. The Bavarians management recently sacked Louis van Gaal for disappointing results. Andries Jonker will remain as the care-taker tactician for
Die Roten until the end of the season, as Jupp Heynckes will be taking over the manager’s hot seat in the summer.
The Bavarians have to achieve maximum points in their upcoming encounters if they have any ambition to play in the Europe’s most prestigious club tournament. As Jonker had to do without the services of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Holger-Badstuber-c16281 due to suspension,
Buyten’s comeback in the squad will surely boost his troops morale before the upcoming clash against Werkself.
