Hertha held their training session this afternoon (16/10/13) at the Schenckendorffplatz training ground. At the session Nico Schulz, Per Skjelbred and Hajime Hosogai all returned to Berlin from international duties and took a gentle start to their training. Sami Allagui and Änis Ben-Hatira also participated in team training after being part of the Tunisian squad. Finally, Peter Pekarik and Hany Mukhtar are set to return to the team on Thursday just two days before Spieltag 9 and the game against Mönchengladbach.
It's great the guys have made it to play for their national teams but it leaves Jos Luhukay perilously low on time to prepare for his old team coming to visit the Olympiastadion. Fingers crossed he can work some magic and keep those 3 points in Berlin!
