VfL Bochum will be without midfielder Enis Cokaj for several weeks after the Albanian international suffered a structural muscle injury in the team’s 2-1 victory at Dynamo Dresden.
The 27-year-old sustained the injury without contact from an opposing player, the second-tier German club said. Coach Uwe Rösler had already feared an absence immediately after the final whistle.
“On the shot he takes from the edge of the penalty area and sends over the bar, he already felt something. Then he pushed off again in the sprint. I have a feeling it will be difficult for next week,” Rösler said.
The injury has proved more serious than initially expected.
