Johannes Lukas fell down a flight of stairs in the arena in Antholz after a training session a week and landed on his shoulder.

The league captain fell on the same shoulder as he injured two years ago and then had to operate.

Lukas has been in a lot of pain since the fall and now he is forced to leave the biathlon national team, writes Expressen.

The league captain will go home and be examined by the same doctor who operated on him.

- It is not really the same feeling as two years ago.

I hope it is so stable that this is not the end of the season.

We will see if there will be surgery, he says to Expressen.

The World Cup starts on February 10 in Pokljuka.

The national team stays in Antholz as part of its recharging before the World Cup, which is the next competition.
