Alexander Røssing-Lelesiit

Rossing-Lelesiit has suffered a new setback in his right ankle during Wednesday's team training session and will not play again this season, according to Hamburger Abendblatt.

Analysis: Rossing-Lelesiit had only just returned from a syndesmosis tear when he rolled his ankle again in training, with the already damaged joint swelling up immediately and forcing him to leave the pitch on crutches following the 2-1 win in Frankfurt. The cruel timing makes this one of the most heartbreaking endings to a campaign, with the young Norwegian having worked so hard to return from his lengthy absence only to suffer an immediate setback. Rossing-Lelesiit ends the season with just 11 appearances and one assist, and Hamburg will now focus entirely on having him fully fit and ready for the start of the 2026/27 season.

Misses call Saturday

Rossing-Lelesiit (ankle) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against Frankfurt.

Analysis: Rossing-Lelesiit has been ruled out after coach Merlin Polzin confirmed the minor setback he suffered in training had left him unlikely to be available for the weekend fixture, with Friday's assessment failing to provide a more encouraging picture. The forward has been limited to just 11 appearances this season due to injuries, recording one assist, and the latest setback pushes his return back further after he had appeared to be closing in on a competitive comeback. No timeline has been provided beyond the weekend, leaving his availability for upcoming fixtures uncertain.
