VfB Lübeck Braces for Pierre Becken's Upcoming Surgery

VfB Lübeck is preparing for a significant moment as their veteran player, Pierre Becken, prepares for surgery on his torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. The injury, sustained during the SHFV Cup quarter-final against Kilia Kiel, has ruled him out for the rest of the season.

In recent weeks, Becken has been instrumental in the team during the transition phase following the squad overhaul. His vast experience, leadership qualities, tackling strength, and composure under pressure have been invaluable to the team. Despite his injury, Becken's duties as a co-trainer continue.

Sporting director Sebastian Harms has praised Becken's commitment and dedication to the team. "Pierre has been a pillar of strength for us during this transitional phase," Harms said. "His experience on the pitch has been crucial in stabilizing our defense, and his role off the field as a co-trainer has been equally important."

The club and fans wish Becken a successful operation and a speedy recovery. The surgery is scheduled for the coming days, and further appearances as a player this season are unlikely.

Becken has played over 280 games in the Regional League and around 40 appearances in the 3rd Liga. His contributions to the team have been significant, and his absence will be felt keenly.

The focus now is on Becken's recovery and the successful outcome of the upcoming surgery. The club's address, Bei der Lohmühle 13, 23554 Lübeck, is where fans can send their well-wishes. The club's location can also be found on Google Maps.

Fans can stay updated on the club's progress through their social media platforms. The club's Instagram handle is @vfb_luebeck_1919, and their Facebook page is @vfbluebeck. The club's website, vfb-luebeck.de, is another source of information.

As Becken embarks on this challenging journey, the club and fans wish him lots of strength. They are confident that he will overcome this setback and return stronger than ever. In the meantime, they will continue to rally behind the team, drawing inspiration from Becken's unwavering spirit and determination.
