Sebastian Rode sidelined

A knee injury will keep the Eintracht captain sidelined until further notice.

Sebastian Rode will be out of action for the foreseeable future due to a persistent knee problem. The 33-year-old sat out Eintracht’s recent Bundesliga home match against VfL Wolfsburg after appearing in the Eagles’ previous five league encounters, as well as both UEFA Europa Conference League games against Union Saint-Gilloise.

“Having struggled with varying degrees of pain in my knee for the last three months, I underwent tests on Friday to assess the status of the injury,” said Rode. “The results were very demoralising and it took some time to establish all possible outcomes and treatment options. I’ve opted for an arthroscopy, which should not only eliminate the symptoms but also provide definitive clarity on the condition of my knee.”

Eintracht Frankfurt wishes Sebastian Rode a smooth and speedy recovery!
