SC Freiburg coach Julian Schuster has shared an update on Ghanaian midfielder Daniel-Kofi Kyereh's recovery from a long-term cruciate ligament injury, offering insight into his gradual progress.

Kyereh, who has been sidelined for nearly two years due to the serious injury, has shown positive signs of recovery, but Schuster emphasized the importance of patience and caution in his rehabilitation.

"Kofi still has a way to go," Schuster said, acknowledging the challenges of returning from such a long layoff. "When you're out for a long time, it's all about general fitness.

His recovery has shown positive signs, but it's a process that varies for every individual."

While the exact timeline for Kyereh's return remains uncertain, Schuster assured that the club is focused on allowing the midfielder to regain full fitness before making a return to competitive action.

"Given the duration of the injury, it's hard to set a definite timeframe," Schuster explained. "Our focus is on ensuring he fully recovers before returning to the pitch."

Kyereh's return is eagerly awaited by both Freiburg and the Ghanaian national team, with the attacking midfielder's absence being felt, especially following his last appearance for the Black Stars at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

His recovery is a significant moment for the player, his club, and the national team as they look forward to his potential return.
