“Given the circumstances, he is doing well. Further tests are being carried out, and we want to get to the bottom of the matter very precisely,” Ole Book said on Thursday about Konstantinos Karetsas’ health condition.

Only once the additional examinations have been completed will there be further prognoses regarding the 18-year-old. However, the BVB sporting director emphasizes: “It is clear that, for now, we are putting the health of the person and the player first. He will not be involved this weekend.”
