The goalkeeper Tim Kleinienst will miss Borussia Mönchengladbach and the national team for a long time. The central striker twisted his knee last weekend in the match in Bayern Munich and contracted a serious injury. Sports director Roland Virkus announced it on Saturday after the 0-1 defeat against VFL Wolfsburg.
« It will work next week and will be released for several months, » said Virkus. The meniscus is also affected. After Bayern’s game, they wanted to wait and see how the knee behaves. Additional investigations then led to the severity of the injury. It was a blow for everyone, said coach Gerardo SEOANE. « We all know the importance of Tim. We must now support him so that he returns quickly, » said Seoane.
