Schalke must do without Gomis again - Schalke's Gomis Out for Weeks With Injury, Threatening Promotion Push

FC Schalke 04 has suffered a setback with striker Christian Gomis sustaining another thigh injury. The injury will sideline him for several weeks, dealing a blow to the team's promotion push in the 2. Bundesliga.

Gomis' latest injury occurred during a 1-0 home victory over SV Darmstadt, where he came on as a substitute. This is the second thigh injury Gomis has sustained this season, having previously missed time in early October. The 24-year-old had only just returned to action ten days ago, scoring in a 3-0 win over Hannover. His absence will be felt in the upcoming DFB-Pokal second-round clash against Darmstadt on Wednesday.

Under the guidance of coach Miron Muslic, FC Schalke 04 currently tops the 2. Bundesliga table, holding a direct promotion spot to the Bundesliga. Gomis' injury may test the team's resolve as they aim to maintain their position at the summit.

Gomis' injury is a significant blow to FC Schalke 04's promotion hopes. The team will need to rely on other players to fill the void left by the striker's absence. Fans will be hoping for a swift recovery, but for now, the team must focus on securing results without him.
