injury. Still though, the club chose to play him.
Zidan scored against Bayern, but now has to pay the

Werder's sporting director Allofs told the Mainz manager:
"We know about Mainz's situation (relegation battle),
but Mohamed is under contract at Werder and we don't
want to see our players injured when they return from
loan."
