HSV's Rössing-Lelesiit Reinjures Ankle, Faces Season-Ending Surgery

The setback follows a high-ankle tear in January's St. Pauli derby.

Overview

  • Hamburger SV said the 19-year-old winger reinjured his ankle in training last week and will undergo surgery that ends his season.
  • He had only just rejoined full team sessions after a syndesmosis, or high-ankle, injury suffered in January during the city derby against St. Pauli.
  • The club signaled a longer rehabilitation, with one local outlet reporting the layoff could last for months.
  • Before the setback, he logged 14 competitive appearances this season and recorded one assist.
  • With Bundesliga safety already secured, his absence now shapes late-season depth and the club's summer choices on youth roles and possible signings.
