Proll out for Frankfurt

Markus Proll is out for another for weeks with an elbow injury.

Bundesliga new boys Eintracht Frankfurt will be without number one goalkeeper Markus Proll for another four weeks after the 26-year-old injured his elbow during training.

Proll has been forced to rest for the past two weeks after tearing ligaments in his right elbow but was expected to recover in time for Saturday's trip to Hannover 96.

However, the keeper aggravated his injury during training on Wednesday forcing coach Friedhelm Funkel (pictured) to rely on second-choice keeper Oka Nikolov again.

It comes as a blow for the Eagles who have had a poor start to the their first season back in the Bundesliga.

They lost their first two games and picked up their first three points courtesy of a narrow 1-0 home win against Nurnberg, who have also had a poor start to their campaign, with only one point to their name so far.
