Bitter message for Gladbach: NGoumou fails for months!

Nathan Ngoumou from Borussia Mönchengladbach has suffered an Achilles tendon tear in the right leg, which makes him fail for the rest of the season. This injury was confirmed by the top of April 7, 2025. NGOUMOU will operate in France on Tuesday, April 10, which will result in a break of several months. The injury occurred during the compensation run after his use in the 86th minute of the game against FC St. Pauli, which ended with a 1-1

Sports director Roland Virkus expressed that the message about NGIUMOUS injury was a bitter disappointment for both the player himself and for the entire team. The association has already taken measures to best support NGoumou during its regeneration. After his injury, the player was immediately carried into the team cabin and treated by the club doctor Ralf Doyscher. Virkus had suspected an Achilles tendon tear at an early stage, which was unfortunately now confirmed.

injury -related challenges

ngoumou had to struggle with muscular problems at the beginning of the year and had to pause until the end of January. Despite these setbacks, he has had a positive development in recent weeks. Since the beginning of 2025, the 25-year-old has been regularly in the starting eleven, scored two goals and gave a template. This consolidated his role in Borussia Mönchengladbach's offensive game, which is currently in sixth in the Bundesliga.

The violation of NGoumou is another challenge for the team that already suffers from the failures of other players. The players concerned include Franck Honorat, Moritz Nicolas and Jonas Omlin. If NGoumou is in the long term, Tomáš Čvančara could step in as an alternative in the offensive area.

The coming time will be crucial for Borussia Mönchengladbach, both in terms of the performance of the team and the individual regeneration of NGoumou. The fans and the team hope for a quick recovery.
