For two Young Boys players, the past season in the Super League ended on a bitter note. Gregory Wüthrich and Joël Monteiro will miss several weeks due to injury.

Both were injured last Sunday in the final championship match against Sion (3:3). As YB announced, central defender Wüthrich suffered a concussion and a broken nose in an unfortunate collision with an opponent in the opening minutes.

Monteiro also suffered a muscle injury in the first half through no fault of his own. The winger is on Murat Yakin's stand-by list for the Swiss World Cup squad. For both, the absence means a training break of several weeks.
