Didillon-Hödl returns sooner than expected for Willem II

Goalkeeper Didillon-Hödl has recovered from his hamstring injury faster than expected and is set to return for Willem II's match against SC Cambuur on Saturday.

Thomas Didillon-Hödl suffered a hamstring injury in Willem II's season opener against Go Ahead Eagles and missed the last eight Eredivisie matches. The club brought in Maxime Delanghe as backup cover, expecting a lengthy absence. However, Didillon-Hödl has progressed ahead of schedule and is now fully fit and training with the squad. Interim manager Adrie Koster confirmed the goalkeeper has received medical clearance and is in contention to start Saturday's 18:45 kick-off against SC Cambuur as Willem II chase their first win of the season.
