Foxes veteran Wiede out for long with ACL tear - Füchse Berlin Devastated: Fabian Wiede Out for Season With Serious Knee Injury
A heavy blow has struck the Füchse Berlin handball team. Veteran player Fabian Wiede has suffered a serious knee injury that will sideline him for the remainder of the season. The injury occurred during a Champions League match against HC Veszprém. Wiede, who has been with the team since his youth, was forced off the court after just ten minutes. An MRI scan confirmed a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee upon the team's return to Berlin. The news has left the team's management and fans devastated. Managing director Bob Hanning described Wiede's injury as a significant setback. New head coach and sports director Jaron Siewert, who has been leading the team since at least the 2024/25 season, will have to rethink the team's strategy without Wiede's abilities. Coach Nicolej Krickau expressed his distress over the injury, acknowledging the impact Wiede's absence will have on the team's performance. Fabian Wiede's injury is a major loss for the Füchse Berlin team. His experience and skills have been invaluable to the squad. The team will now have to adapt and find new ways to compensate for his absence as they continue their season.
