Despite playing the full 90 minutes of Stuttgart\u2019s Matchday 6 victory over Heidenheim (1-0), the club\u2019s official outlets<\/strong><\/a> have confirmed that Ermedin Demirovi\u0107 suffered a fractured metatarsal and is set for a spell on the sidelines.<\/p>\n

Whilst Stuttgart haven\u2019t yet provided an official timeframe for the Bosnian striker\u2019s recovery -simply announcing that he will be out \u2018until further notice\u2019 – kicker <\/strong><\/a>reports that it may take up to eight weeks before Demirovi\u0107 is back to match fitness again.<\/p>\n

This injury will be a blow for Stuttgart, for whom the win over Heidenheim marked their third consecutive Bundesliga victory, which saw them climb into fourth place in the table. These results are due in part to Demirovi\u0107\u2019s performances, who leads the side\u2019s goalscoring charts having netted three times in the league.<\/p>\n

Their top scorer joins a steadily-growing injury list which already includes Deniz Undav, Finn Jeltsch, and Noah Darvich, among others.<\/p>\n

Whilst there had been hope that Undav would be able to make his comeback from the knee injury he sustained in Stuttgart\u2019s 1-0 victory over Borussia M\u00f6nchengladbach on Matchday 2, there\u2019s no guarantee that the German international will be ready and available for the Bundesliga\u2019s resumption on 18 October, when Stuttgart travel to Wolfsburg.<\/p>\n

As such, the club must prepare for the eventuality of being without either of their star strikers.Speaking on the recent addition of Demirovi\u0107 to Stuttgart\u2019s injury list, sporting director Fabian Wohlgemuth outlined the club\u2019s strategy, announcing:<\/p>\n

“What will be critical to our success is how we respond to the current situation. Until Deniz and Ermedin return to the team, we\u2019ll have to spread the workload across several shoulders. We\u2019ll need to rely on improvisation and creative solutions – something we\u2019ve successfully managed in the past as well.”<\/em><\/p>\n
