The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Royal-95-c40387 Blues' star is set to be sidelined for almost a month after sustaining an arm injury.
Schalke 04 star midfielder, Julian Draxler, will face time on the sidelines for four weeks after fracturing his left arm. The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 international suffered a broken arm in the 2-2 UEFA Champions League draw with French champions
Montpellier at the Veltins Arena.
Draxler was impressive in the Montpellier clash as he equalised for the German side before winning the crucial penalty, which his team member http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Klaas-Jan-Huntelaar-c21175 scored to make it 2-1. However, after winning the spot-kick for Schalke
he was unable to continue playing and was stretchered off.
The Miners' head coach Huub Stevens expressed his disappointment from the recent news on top of their Champions League stalemate. This will be devastating for the Bundesliga outfit as the youngster was playing really well in all
competitions.
Die Knappen’s fitness doctor Thorsten Rarreck stated that if he recovers according to the schedule then he will be back in training within three to four weeks. Moreover, he said that he is wishing to have the starlet back in the
team sooner than this, but will wear the protective cast just in case.
"If everything goes well he will be out for three to four weeks,” he was quoted as saying in an interview.
"I hope he can come back relatively quickly and can train with a protective cast," the 2011 DFB-Pokal cup and DFL-Supercup winner finally concluded.
The midfielder is expected to be out of Germany’s 2014 World Cup qualifiers against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 at
the Emirates Stadium. This will be a big blow for their qualification to the next round of Europe’s Premier tournament.
Draxler, who is still a teenager, made his senior team debut in 2010 and has so far made 50 appearances for the club. He netted four league goals in the process and recently earned an international call-up following his brilliant
displays for the club last season. His total tally of goals is 12 for Die Konigsblauen.
