TVB Stuttgart’s Jonas Truchanovičius Suffers Third Torn ACL, Out Indefinitely

TVB Stuttgart pledges support following medical confirmation of another right‑knee ACL tear that leaves the veteran facing a lengthy recovery.

Overview

  • Truchanovičius was injured in Monday’s home match against MT Melsungen, which Stuttgart lost 29–31.
  • He landed awkwardly after a first‑half block attempt, and a subsequent examination confirmed a rupture in his right knee.
  • The club has not announced a surgical timetable or detailed prognosis, and his absence is described as indefinite.
  • It is his third ACL rupture in two years after a tear in September 2023 and another operation in 2024 shortly after a comeback.
  • Stuttgart extended his contract over the summer as the coach lauded his character, and CEO Jürgen Schweikardt called the fresh setback a bitter blow while promising full support.
