HSV blow: new signing sidelined for weeks! | OneFootball

These are truly bitter news for HSV: The newly signed winter addition Albert Grönbaek will have to pause for the time being.

As the Red Shorts announced on Wednesday afternoon, the 24-year-old attacking player suffered a fascia injury in his right thigh during training. This was revealed by MRI scans at the Athleticum at Volkspark. As a result, the Dane is expected to be out for several weeks for the Bundesliga newcomer.

Especially frustrating: Grönbaek only joined Hamburg on loan from Stade Rennes at the end of January and is still waiting for his competitive debut. Instead of continuing to integrate with the team, he now faces a rehab program. This absence is particularly bitter for HSV, as Sambi Lokonga, another midfielder, also has to pause for several weeks. The personnel situation in the Hanseatic engine room is becoming increasingly thin.

HSV: Bitter setback for Grönbaek

This setback also comes at a bad time for the player himself. Grönbaek spent the first half of the season on loan at Italian Serie A club CFC Genoa, where he also struggled with serious injury problems. For this reason, the Danish international only managed six competitive appearances.

With his move to Hamburg, Grönbaek wanted to give his career new momentum and put himself in contention for a World Cup nomination in the summer. However, the versatile attacker, who can play in the center as well as on both wings, will have to put this goal on hold for now.
