"Borussia" team's midfielder Ilkay Gundogan is being haunted by health problems. The player, who has been unable to assist Jurgen Klopp's team for almost the entire season, will also not compete in the upcoming World Cup in Brazil. In August, Gundogan suffered a back injury that was unable to fully heal throughout the season. "Ilkay will not play in the World Cup. It is very difficult for him to come to terms with that. His back has almost healed, but he needs time to recover from the injury," said "Borussia" coach J. Klopp. This season, I. Gundogan only played in three official matches.
