In a recent friendly match against AFC Bournemouth, FC Augsburg suffered a 5-2 defeat. However, one of their players, Mert Kömür, who has been linked with Hull City, did not sustain a serious injury during the game. Head coach Manuel Baum provided an update on the player's condition after the match and at the start of the training camp in Achenkirch, Austria.
Baum stated that while Kömür is experiencing pain from an ankle injury, it is not structural. The 21-year-old had already been dealing with a slightly injured ankle before the game due to a previous knock. The severity and duration of his absence will depend on how much pain he continues to experience.
Augsburg's cautious approach suggests that Kömür may have to reduce his workload or take it easy in upcoming training sessions. This news comes as a slight concern for Hull City, who have been regularly linked with the attacking midfielder since their promotion to the Premier League this season.
The club remains optimistic about Kömür's recovery and availability but will monitor his condition closely over the coming days.
