Impact Burkardt has been out since late November with a calf injury but he has been back training with the team for the past two weeks and could be ready to return for Saturday's clash against Gladbach. This would be a major boost for the Eagles since he was a regular starter early in the season after arriving over the summer. That said, he now faces real competition up front following the recent arrival of Arnaud Kalimuendo.

Impact Burkardt is not going to be with the team for yet another match, as the forward is still to train.

Still out Burkardt (calf) is out for Friday's match against Dortmund, according to manager Dino Toppmoller.

Impact Burkardt has not been able to recover in the few weeks since the start of the break, as the forward is now set to miss their first match of 2026 due to the injury. This will extend his absence to six games, a rough timeline for the typical starter. Ansgar Knauff should remain their starting forward until Burkardt returns to play.

Impact Burkardt is still awaiting an MRI about his calf injury and is out for the time being, missing a second match in a row Saturday. Unfortunately for the forward, it now remains questionable if he will make the team again this year, likely needing to wait until 2026 to be fit again. Ansgar Knauff and Elye Wahi remain the likely replacements at forward while he is out.

Out until further notice Burkardt (calf) is out for the time being due to a calf injury, according to his club.

Impact Burkardt is going to hit the sidelines after injuring his calf in Wednesday's UCL match, as the forward needs some time off to recover. The club will have to do without a regular starter at forward while he is out, starting in 12 of his 15 appearances this season, while bagging 10 goals and one assist. He will likely eye a return in around two to three weeks, around the end of December, with Jean-Matteo Bahoya or Elye Wahi as replacements while he is recovering.
