Confirmed: Mark Uth will be operated on again and will be out for a long time
Mark Uth
Mark Uth has to go under the knife again, confirmed Christian Keller on Sunday.
the fears another operation on Mark Uth has been confirmed: On Sunday, sports director Christian Keller confirmed to the picturethat the 31-year-old striker will have to undergo another operation in the coming week.
“Unfortunately, there will be another surgical procedure next Thursday in order to hopefully get the adductor and pubic bone problems under control, which have been hampering Mark for a long time,” said Keller. “The downtime after the surgery will certainly be 10 to 12 weeks.”
This means that Cologne will have to do without Uth at least until March. Head coach Steffen Baumgart, who previously publicly announced his desire for another striker, will now insist even more on a new winter signing for the offensive.
Uth has only played five competitive games this season due to his pubic bone problems, his contract expires next summer. In view of his past performances, it’s no wonder that Keller wants to keep the native of Cologne at the club: “Even if he wasn’t able to help this season in the way we all imagined – we clearly want Mark to continue to work for us plays.”
