Hildebrand down with swine flu

He is the third player to go down with the virus from Ralf Rangnick's squad following the news the Marvin Compper and Demba Ba contracted the illness earlier in the week. Hildebrand has been quarantined and will not train with the rest of the squad or feature in Saturday's match at VfB Stuttgart. As with Compper and Ba, it seems most likely that Hildebrand will return to training on 3 January.
