Maximilian Mittelstädt suffered a laceration to his right heel during a challenge in Saturday afternoon’s 2-0 Bundesliga away victory at SC Paderborn on 10 October 2026. The full-back, who played the full 90 minutes, required stitches after the match.
The Germany international will therefore be out of action for the time being.
Everyone at VfB wishes ‘Maxi’ a speedy recovery.
