Bad news for Gladbach: Young talent Herrmann will be out for a long time!
In the last few days, Borussia Mönchengladbach has had to deal with difficult news: the promising talent Charles Herrmann will be out for the long term. The young player sustained a significant elbow injury while participating in the U19 European Championship, which forced him to leave the national team headquarters. As derwesten.de reports, Herrmann was no longer able to intervene in the decisive semi-final game and thus missed the chance to play his way further into the spotlight.
The injury to the 19-year-old midfielder, who moved from Borussia Dortmund to Gladbach just a year ago, could have bitter consequences for the coming season. Charles Herrmann will not only miss the current season preparation in July 2024, but also the U23 preparation, which began on June 14th. This bad news hits the team and the fans hard, because Herrmann was considered one of the club's greatest talents.
Difficult season for the foals
The mood at Borussia Mönchengladbach couldn't be more tense at the moment. With a disappointing end to the season and a sluggish transfer window, the team is in a precarious position. The absence of Herrmann, who was already considered part of the professional squad last season, will not make the situation any easier. BMG News highlights that Herrmann was seen as a bright spot in the team, particularly due to his strong performances in the U19 and his contribution in the Regionalliga, where he scored two goals and provided six assists in 32 games.
His father, Charles Akonnor, had previously raved about his son's stellar career. However, with the injury, that has now become a long way off. Herrmann's condition has not yet been commented on further by Borussia, an official announcement is still pending, which does not exactly improve the uncertain situation for the fans.
Reports of injuries to the foals
Borussia's bad luck with injuries seems to be very pronounced this season. The team is currently playing without several players who are dealing with various injuries. The list of injured players includes an adductor injury, which will result in him being out until the end of the month, and a meniscus injury, which is expected to require treatment until mid-September. According to transfermarkt.de, the team has already missed several games due to these injuries. Herrmann's elbow injury is one of a number of concerns about the health of the players.
The coming weeks will be crucial for Borussia Mönchengladbach. Fans are hoping for a speedy recovery from their players as the club tries to find ways out of the current crisis to regain confidence in the coming seasons.
