The FC Bayern loanee will be getting more minutes.
Bayern Munich loanee Paul Scholl could be set for a bigger role at Karlsruher SC due to an injury to starting center-back Marcel Beifus.
Scholl, a 19-year-old, was specifically called out by Karlsruher SC sporting director Mario Eggimann to step in for Beifus on the club’s website:
After twisting his knee in the first training session of the training camp, Marcel Beifus returned to Karlsruhe on Wednesday evening. Further examinations followed on Thursday, which diagnosed cartilage damage in his right knee. The injury will be treated surgically as soon as possible. Unfortunately, the season is now over for the 23-year-old central defender.
Mario Eggimann, Sporting Director: “We wish Marcel a speedy recovery and a full return. In our squad, we have a young player in Paul Scholl who already showed in the Bochum match that he can fill this role. At the same time, it is our responsibility to keep an eye on the overall situation.”
No one wants to see an injury, but this is a great opportunity for Scholl, who has played 123 minutes in five games so far this season with Karlsruher SC.
