What happened. Assan Ouédraogo suffered a right shoulder injury during a training session on Saturday and will miss several weeks of the new Bundesliga season.

• He will undergo conservative treatment.
• The 20-year-old has a lengthy injury history.
• He missed large parts of the 2024/25 season.

“He's a very humble young man who has no airs and has already been through some difficult periods.”

— Julian Nagelsmann

Ouédraogo's return date is unclear, but he has shown resilience in bouncing back from injuries before.
