The first professional season has ended prematurely for Dortmund's top soccer talent Youssoufa Moukoko.
As the Bundesliga team announced shortly before leaving for the quarter-final first leg of the Champions League on Tuesday (9 p.m. / DAZN *) at Manchester City, the 16-year-old attacker will not be available until the summer due to a ligament injury in his foot.
He suffered the injury during the preliminary round of the U21 European Championship in Hungary.
“Injuries are part of it, and it's a big challenge for a player.
It just depends on how you deal with it.
Whether you hang your head or keep going ”, Moukoko commented on Instagram and announced a comeback“ with tremendous power ”.
“I'm going to work harder and harder.
The Mouki will be back soon. "
Sancho and Witsel are also still out
In addition, Borussia in Manchester will again have to do without Jadon Sancho.
The 21-year-old England international, who had been absent from his team in previous games due to persistent muscle problems, was not part of the Revierclub's traveling group at lunchtime, just like the long-term injuries Axel Witsel and Dan-Axel Zagadou.
