Nuremberg (dpa / lby) – Coach Markus Weinzierl has to accept a double personal setback at 1. FC Nuremberg. As the Franconian second division soccer team announced on Friday, midfielder Taylan Duman will be out for several weeks. Defender Florian Hübner will still be missing.
Duman (25) suffered a blow to his ankle during his comeback after a week-long break on Sunday against Holstein Kiel (2:3) and tore his syndesmosis ligament. He will be operated on Monday.
Hübner (31) is also not an option for the away game on Saturday (1 p.m. / Sky) at Fortuna Düsseldorf. He had recently paused with back problems. A further investigation has now revealed that Hübner has a nerve irritation and is still absent from the traditional club threatened with relegation.
