Wolfsburg hope rest will enable Kevin De Bruyne to get back his best after a disappointing performance against Eintracht Frankfurt.
The Belgium international has been subject to intense speculation during the close-season after a stunning 2014-15 season in the Bundesliga, with Manchester City said to be leading the way for his signature.
De Bruyne - who pledged his future to Wolfsburg during the Sport Bild awards on Monday - struggled during the club's 2-1 win over Frankfurt last weekend, and was substituted with 15 minutes to play by coach Dieter Hecking.
"Kevin is a bit tired at the moment because so much activity is there," Hecking is quoted as saying by Bild.
"It is a problem that it still affects him, and we are trying to bring him into the best condition."
