BVB shock! First half of the season for Youssoufa Moukoko

Bad news for Borussia Dortmund: The first half of the season has apparently been over for the storm jewel Youssoufa Moukoko, who has been plagued by several injuries.

As the Ruhr news report that Moukoko suffered another muscle injury (fiber tear) and will no longer be used until the end of the year.

For Moukoko it is a symbolic end to what has been anything but satisfactory first half at BVB. To date, the 17-year-old has only made six appearances in the Bundesliga (97 minutes, one assist) and was only in the starting line-up once. In the DFB-Pokal he only makes a short appearance at a time.

The fact that Moukoko did not get into the season at all was not only due to the late entry into the summer preparation due to a three-month forced break (syndesmosis ligament rupture), but also to two protracted injuries in October. Initially, Moukoko slowed down a muscle injury, and immediately after his recovery, an eye infection put him out of action.

The U21 international and youngest scorer in Bundesliga history celebrated his comeback last Saturday and played in the second team’s third division game against 1. FC Kaiserslautern (0-0).
