At the third division club SSV Ulm 1846, the third player suffered a cruciate ligament tear in the still young season. Newcomer Marcel Little happened according to club information on Friday in the 1: 3 defeat in Saarbrücken on September 16. The 21 -year -old midfielder had been substituted for Leon Dajaku (24) in the 61st minute and is now missing for months.
Before that, the Spatzen already hit central defenders and captain Johannes Reichert (34) and striker Dominik Martinovic (28). Managing Director Markus Thiele said: “It is almost surreal that we have to cope with three cruciate ligament cracks in six games. But that will not overturn, our team sticks together and always plays for the injured. Of course, Marcel gets the greatest possible support from us.”
The little one who trained in Nuremberg and FC Bayern is already looking back on a serious injury history. After moving to Eintracht Frankfurt in 2022, he first suffered a midfoot break and in January 2024 his first of now two cruciate ligament cracks.
