Weeks of rest
Knee operation: Max Wöber has to go under the knife
ÖFB team player Maximilian Wöber has decided to undergo knee surgery and will be out for four to six weeks. This was confirmed by ÖFB team boss Ralf Rangnick on Monday when he announced the squad in Vienna.
The operation will take place on Tuesday in Innsbruck. "A cyst has formed directly on the meniscus, they will probably remove it," Rangnick told journalists.
"Had pain again immediately"
The problems had become acute during the last ÖFB training course at the beginning of September, which is why Wöber did not play in the Nations League match against Norway (1-2) and then also at his club, English second division side Leeds United. "Last week, they gave it another conventional try," Rangnick revealed. "But he immediately felt pain again and has now decided to have this operation."
According to Rangnick, it is therefore unclear whether Wöber will be available to the ÖFB team at all this year. The last two international matches of the year will take place in mid-November in Kazakhstan (November 14) and in Vienna against Slovenia (November 17).
