Eintracht Frankfurt has to do without Filip Kostic for an indefinite period of time. The left wing suffered a partial tear to the knee ligament in a 3-1 win over Hertha BSC on Friday, as announced by the Hessian Bundesliga team on Sunday morning. Kostic will be out “for several weeks,” according to the report.
“Lucky in the accident that he didn’t tear a cruciate ligament or anything like that,” sports director Bruno Huebner said of the injury. “He is in the best hands with our doctors.” After the game in Berlin, initially there was a punt. The tapes were good, they said.
Now Zuber has to comply
It is currently unknown how the Serb is treated and exactly how long “several weeks” last. A quick return from Frankfurt’s best offensive force is unlikely to be expected.
Kostic’s bad luck could turn into a great opportunity for Steven Zuber. The new addition from TSG Hoffenheim, which has already been replaced by Kostic in Berlin, is available as a replacement.
