Austria Vienna without Defender Handl for Months

The 27-year-old Handl has been suffering from a viral illness for several weeks and is currently only allowed to exert his body moderately, according to Austria Wien on Tuesday. Team training is not expected for several months.

Austria Wien Defender Handl Hopes for Quick Return

"The most important thing is that I am feeling better now. I hope to be able to train more intensively as soon as possible and subsequently help the team on the field," explained Handl. The illness became noticeable in mid-August, and since then the defender has had to pause. In subsequent examinations, more serious illnesses were ruled out and a clear diagnosis was made, as Austria Wien wrote. The inflammation levels are now being monitored at regular intervals. As soon as the levels allow, Handl will be able to increase his training intensity again.
