Kevin Diks Injury: Forced off injured

Diks was forced off at the break in Sunday's 3-2 victory against SV Atlas Delmenhorst in the DFB Pokal due to a thigh injury, according to Kicker.

Diks was holding his thigh right before the break and was forced off at halftime due to injury. This is a big blow for Gladbach since he is an expected starter in the defense for the upcoming season. He will be assessed in the coming days and is he has to miss some time to recover, Fabio Chiarodia is expected to get a larger role in the backline until he returns.
