Niclas Fullkrug Injury: Suffers torn muscle in thigh

Fullkrug looks to have suffered a torn muscle in his thigh and is expected to remain out for the time being, confirmed German national team coach Julian Nagelsmann per Sportschau.

This is not good news for Fullkrug, who could miss significant time with a thigh injury. He continues to struggle after six league games played with no goals while recording just eight shots (three on target) in five starts. This will likely force Jarrod Bowen to play as the No. 9 unless new manager Nuno Espirito Santo opts for Callums Wilson, who wasn't used off the bench last game.
