Rasmus Kristensen - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Could miss rest of season Kristensen (ankle) could miss the rest of the season since he is set to undergo a surgery in the coming days, according to BILD.

Impact Kristensen went down with a serious ankle injury in Saturday's showdown with Gladbach, and follow-up tests confirmed he's headed for surgery. The setback could sideline the defender for the remainder of the campaign with the Eagles, though his 2026 World Cup hopes are still alive for now. Before the injury, Kristensen had been a locked-in starter, making the starting XI in 18 of his 19 Bundesliga outings, chipping in with two goal contributions while stacking up 45 tackles and 55 clearances. With him out of the mix, expect Aurele Amenda to log heavier minutes in the back three, while Ritsu Doan could see an expanded role operating down the right flank.

Returns with two chances created Kristensen registered one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Wednesday's 3-2 defeat to Qarabag. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 61st minute.

Impact Kristensen came back from injury and created a pair of chances. The defender is an excellent offensive option, at least when he's allowed to line up at wing-back. If he stays out wide Kristensen likes to get forward and has a strong shot from distance. If he's pushed back to a central defensive role his upside is significantly limited.

Impact Kristensen suffered a face injury in Friday's draw against Bremen but is doing fine and will be able to play while wearing a mask. The defensive midfield has been an undisputed starter for the eagles this season and his role is unlikely to change under new coach Dennis Schmitt. That said, if he had to start Wednesday's Champions League clash against Qarabag on the bench, Ritsu Doan will likely play on the right flank in a deeper role on the pitch.

Forced off against Bremen Kristensen left Friday's game versus Werder Bremen after picking up an undisclosed injury.

Impact Kristensen was unable to continue in the initial minutes of the second half following a quiet performance. He has made seven consecutive starts across all competitions but is now at risk of missing the upcoming double-week Champions League and Bundesliga action. Aurelio Buta is a possible replacement option at right-back, but Nnamdi Collins, currently playing in the middle, could also be deployed on the flank.
