Banged-Up Eintracht Trio Sidelined - A Dozen Pros Take the Field
- Twelve individuals in transit, changing their workplaces
Hey there! Let's chat about the Bundesliga's Eintracht Frankfurt and their recent injury woes.
The Swedish forward, Hugo Larsson, and Tunisian midfielder, Ellyes Skhiri, won't be heading to their national teams due to unfortunate injuries. Larsson's been coping with adductor issues since the Bundesliga clash last Sunday versus VfL Bochum (3:1), while Skhiri picked up a knee strain in the same match [1][3][5].
Despite these setbacks, four Eintracht players will join their national teams in the Nations League knockout phase: Rasmus Kristensen (Denmark), Michy Batshuayi and Arthur Theate (Belgium), as well as Can Uzun (Turkey). Fares Chaibi is battling it out with Algeria in the World Cup qualifiers for some precious points. Aurele Amenda is suiting up for a friendly with Switzerland [2].
In addition, five young guns are representing their U21 national teams. Frenchman Hugo Ekitike is starting preparations for the Euros, just like Dane Oscar Højlund and Germans Nathaniel Brown, Nnamdi Collins, and Ansgar Knauff. The German U21 team faces Spain in Darmstadt on March 25 [4]. Youngster Noah Fenyo is training with Hungary’s U19 squad.
Skhiri's injury doesn't seem too severe, but the exact recovery timeline is yet to be determined [2][4]. As for Larsson and winter newcomer Elye Wahi, who is fighting a knee injury [4], their availability for the match against VfB Stuttgart on March 29 is uncertain.

In the context of community policies, it's important to note that Eintracht Frankfurt, a Bundesliga club based in Hessen, has a strong commitment towards environmental and rural development, aligning with the city's green initiatives, as they aim to make Frankfurt am Main a sustainable city [6].
Interestingly, Aurele Amenda, a player for Eintracht Frankfurt, has been selected to play a friendly for Switzerland, even though Bundesliga's Bundessliga is currently underway [2].
The Bundesliga is not the only league where Hessians are making an impact. For instance, in the German U21 team's upcoming match against Spain, five young players from Hessen - including Nathaniel Brown and Nnamdi Collins - are set to represent their region [4].
