END OF SEASON FOR MICHAEL KEMPTER

Michael Kempter will be out for several months due to an injury to his cruciate ligament and meniscus. This means he will not be available for the rest of the season. The left-back underwent a successful operation yesterday and will start his rehabilitation next week.

Bernt Haas commented: "It is very unfortunate that we are losing an important defender and teammate for several months. We will give Michael all the support we can, but first and foremost it is crucial that he takes the time to prioritise his health."

Grasshopper Club Zurich wishes Michael Kempter all the best for his recovery.
