Ghana’s Moritz-Broni Kwarteng faces double blow: Suspension and season-ending injury

Call us



The weekend clash between Bochum and Leipzig took a devastating turn for German-born Ghanaian striker Moritz-Broni Kwarteng, as a foul against Leipzig’s Loïs Openda not only resulted in a suspension but also left Kwarteng facing a serious injury.

The 25-year-old offensive player found himself on the receiving end of a harsh tackle, leading to a partial tear of the medial ligament in his knee.

The repercussions were severe, with Kwarteng now facing a lengthy recovery process that will see him sidelined for the remainder of the season. Bochum confirmed that Kwarteng’s injury necessitates a week-long break, effectively ruling him out for the foreseeable future.

Kwarteng’s absence will undoubtedly be felt by the team as they navigate their remaining fixtures.

In light of the injury and subsequent suspension, VfL Bochum has opted against appealing the disciplinary action. Instead, the focus now shifts to supporting Kwarteng in his rehabilitation journey and strategizing for the challenges ahead without one of their key players on the pitch.

Kwarteng has made eleven appearances and assisted one goal in the Bundesliga this season.
