Prussia and the Manfred Osei Kwadwo riddle

92 days ago Manfred Osei Kwadwo was last on the pitch for Munster, and has only been officially included in the squad list since then. Already missed 16 competitive games. And – there will definitely be a lot more.

His summer engagement raised high expectations. Kwadwo was the fifth newcomer to the ambitious regional league team and should actually ensure speed on the left wing. Or alternatively act behind the tips and as a second striker. Sports director Peter Niemeyer (37) about the German-Ghanaian who came from Waldhof Mannheim on a free transfer: “We are happy that Manni has chosen us. He has already been able to prove his qualities several times and fits perfectly into our requirement profile. “

What was just as important for Munster’s sports boss: “He has a positive personality and is a real team player.”

All the more bitter that the former second division professional (25 appearances for Kaiserslautern and Magdeburg, plus 60 third division games) has not been able to provide evidence of this to this day. Because in his second test for the eagle bearers at Dortmund’s amateurs (July 18th / 3: 2) he left the pitch with muscle problems in his right thigh after just 30 minutes. Then said reassuringly: “I didn’t want to risk anything, just to be on the safe side, I had myself replaced immediately.”

Apparently a clear misjudgment. The fact is: it was his last appearance for Prussia for the time being. The complaints are apparently anything but harmless. Throw Kwadwo back to this day. In any case, head coach Sascha Hildmann (49) has no longer planned him for this year, but does not expect him until January at the earliest.

Interesting: Why Kwadwo’s thigh is still “mucking” is not really clear even to him. Hildmann shrugging: “There have always been some setbacks. What exactly, I’m overwhelmed.”

In addition, “Manni” has not been in Munster for many weeks, but has been treated by Bjorn Reindl, a former physiotherapist from Eintracht Frankfurt, FSV Frankfurt and Kickers Offenbach in Neu-Isenburg. In the “home environment”, as his family is also close the main metropolis is alive.

Double bad luck that Kwadwo apparently also had to be in quarantine during this time because he had contact with a person suffering from Corona.

The hope of the Prussians is now that the wing racer (1.70m) can finally get on in preparation for the back series and celebrate his second restart in the black-white-green jersey. Hildmann: “Manni calls me from time to time and asks how things are going with us. There is no question that he wants to. “
