Geiger suffers new injury setback

Dennis Geiger faces a new spell on the sidelines after sustaining an injury against Werder Bremen.

TSG Hoffenheim have announced that Dennis Geiger has suffered another injury setback.

The central midfielder, who had just returned from a long spell on the sidelines, suffered a thigh injury in Sunday's 2-1 win over Werder Bremen.

"It's very bitter and emotional for him. But he'll get through it, I'm absolutely sure of that," said Hoffenheim head coach Pellegrino Matarazzo.

"Dennis is a fighter, he will come back stronger and perform om the pitch again."
