“More Likely to Lead to Disappointment”: Struber Gives Sobering Update on FC Misfortune Uth
Struber's Discouraging Prognosis
FC St. Pauli coach Timo Struber has delivered a sobering assessment of the club's injury-stricken striker Daniel-Kofi Kyereh, casting doubt on his immediate return to action. Kyereh has been sidelined since January with a knee injury that has required surgery, and Struber's comments suggest that the Ghanaian's recovery is taking longer than anticipated.
Lingering Knee Issues
"Kofi is still struggling with some issues with his knee," Struber told reporters. "He's been training with the team, but he's not yet ready to play at full intensity. We need to be careful and not rush him back too soon, otherwise we risk further setbacks."
Uncertain Return Timeframe
Struber refused to commit to a specific timeframe for Kyereh's return, acknowledging that his recovery is progressing slower than hoped. "It's difficult to say exactly when he'll be back," Struber said. "We're monitoring his progress closely and we'll make a decision based on what the medical staff tells us."
Caution Amid Disappointment
Struber's cautious approach reflects the club's desire to avoid aggravating Kyereh's injury and potentially prolonging his absence. While the news is undoubtedly disappointing for St. Pauli fans eager to see the striker back on the pitch, the club's priority remains Kyereh's long-term health and recovery.
Impact on Club Performance
Kyereh's extended absence has been a major blow to St. Pauli's attacking options. The 26-year-old was the club's top scorer last season, and his goalscoring prowess has been sorely missed. St. Pauli have struggled to find a consistent source of goals in Kyereh's absence, and their league position has suffered as a result.
