Sidelined after cup injury
Nartey is facing a potential absence after picking up a thigh injury in the DFB-Pokal match against Hansa Rostock, VfB Stuttgart announced Saturday.
Analysis: Nartey was in the starting lineup for the cup match but lasted only nine minutes on the field before being replaced by Josha Vagnoman. This leaves Stuttgart with a big worry regarding one of their main midfield options heading into the early part of the season. No return timeline has been provided, so his availability for upcoming matches remains unclear.
Finished with aplomb
Nartey scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 2-2 draw against Eintracht Frankfurt.
Analysis: Nartey finished his breakout campaign with his fourth goal of the season, leaving him with four goals and three assists in 28 appearances (14 starts.) The midfielder made the most of his chances throughout the season and ended the season with two starts in a row. Nartey should be in line to take on an even larger role in 2026/27.
