Injury Halts Fortuna's de Wijs After Starting Lineup Return - Jordy de Wijs faces another lengthy spell out with back injury

Fortuna Düsseldorf defender Jordy de Wijs has suffered a fresh setback after returning to the starting lineup. The Dutch centre-back picked up a back market injury in a recent match, forcing him off the pitch early. His absence will now extend for the foreseeable future.

De Wijs had only just regained his place in the team after a previous spell on the sidelines. His latest injury occurred during a clash with Darmstadt striker Isac Lidberg. The incident took place after just 15 minutes of play, cutting short his comeback.

The defender had been working his way back to full fitness before this latest blow. Details on his earlier absence in the 2. Bundesliga remain unclear, but his ongoing struggles have now worsened. Fortuna Düsseldorf will have to cope without him for an extended period once again.

The injury rules de Wijs out indefinitely, leaving Düsseldorf with a defensive gap to fill. His early exit against Darmstadt adds to the club's challenges as they adjust their squad. The exact length of his recovery has yet to be confirmed.
