Young star Kennet Eichhorn is about to make his comeback in the jersey of second-division soccer club Hertha BSC. Although a starting eleven appearance is too early for the 16-year-old, the Berlin native will be in the squad, announced coach Stefan Leitl ahead of Saturday's floodlit match at Dynamo Dresden (20:30/RTL Nitro and Sky).
On Monday, the midfielder, who has been courted by several Bundesliga clubs, completed his first training session with the team since mid-January. An ankle injury put Eichhorn out of action for months. "Nevertheless, Kenny is making a very good impression in all forms of the game. He's already much further along than we expected," reported Leitl.
