Luis Coordes: Ex-St. Pauli Profi has to look for a new club!

In a surprising twist, football fans in Hamburg have to say goodbye to Luis Coordes. The former FC St. Pauli player has received the bitter news that he is no longer scheduled for Eintracht Norderstedt. After just one year at the club, the 26-year-old winger is now forced to find a new club St. Pauli 24 reported.

Coordes, who only made 13 appearances last season due to several injuries, was unable to gain a foothold in Norderstedt despite his former hopes. He once moved from St. Pauli to VfB Stuttgart's U23, where he played 12 games in the Regionalliga Nord in his first season. The change came about because the development of the talented outside player did not meet the club's expectations, according to sports director Andreas Bornemann. Coordes himself accepted the challenge and saw it as a new opportunity to prove himself Transfer market reported.

Injury problem in focus

The careers of young talents like Coordes are often affected by injuries. A recent study from Leeds Beckett University in England shows that professional footballers suffer injuries particularly frequently. More than 470 injuries were documented among 240 players in one season - a worrying number. Each player was injured an average of two times per season, a 40 percent increase compared to a similar study in 2001. Many players are affected, especially in December and January, when the games are condensed due to the high load. Muscular problems, especially in the thigh, are among the most common injuries Deutschlandfunk explained.

Modern football places high demands on the players' joints and muscles, which increases the risk of injuries not only among older professionals, but also in youth classes. Wolfgang Potthast is therefore calling for investigations into injury prevention in the youth performance centers of the Bundesliga clubs in order to ensure better health care for the athletes.

Coordes can now hope that a new opportunity will soon arise, because with an international match for the Dominican Republic under his belt, he has the potential to make a new start at another club. A sporting career can sometimes be like a rollercoaster ride, but with the right touch, the young attacking player could still turn things around.
