Frankfurt's Korkmaz fractures foot again

Umit KormazFrankfurt - Austria forward Umit Kormaz fractured his right foot for the second time in five months on Wednesday and is sidelined for several months in the latest injury shock at German Bundesliga club Eintracht Frankfurt.

Korkmaz picked up the injury during training. He suffered the same fate in his first training at the club in July after a move from Rapid Vienna and was out for three months.

"I have never seen such bad injury luck in my many years in football," said Frankfurt board chairman Heribert Bruchhagen.

Korkmaz joins six other players on mid-table Frankfurt's injury list and coach Friedhelm Funkel will also miss Patrick Ochs over a suspension in the next match on Saturday at Borussia Dortmund. (dpa)
