Wisdom teeth leave Junuzovic sidelined

Werder Bremen's player of the year from last season Zlatko Junuzovic will be sidelined by an operation to remove his wisdom teeth on Friday, according to the Bundesliga club.

"He will be out for three or four days and is unavailable for the friendly with West Ham United (on Sunday)," coach Viktor Skripnik told the club home page.

"We hope that he can train again on Monday."

Bremen begin their Bundesliga campaign on August 15 at home to Schalke.
