Aron Johannsson to miss start of Bundesliga season with chronic hip issues

Werder Bremen announced in late March that Aron Johannsson would miss the remainder of the 2015-16 Bundesliga season with a nagging hip injury. After having surgery on October 2015, recovery from the injury hasn't gone as planned and it has kept the United States international off the field ever since.

The club's CEO Frank Baumann told Kicker on Tuesday that Johannsson still isn't in their plans for preseason and there's no timetable for his return yet.

The Icelandic-American is dealing with a nerve issue which is more difficult to give a prognosis on than a bone break or muscle strain/tear.
