Ilyas Ansah faces injury setbacks at Hull City

Ilyas Ansah, the 21-year-old U21 international who recently transferred from 1. FC Union Berlin to Hull City for a fee of up to 21 million euros, is struggling with a persistent back injury.

Since his move to England, Ansah has not played a single minute and has not even been included in the matchday squad for Hull City. He is currently receiving treatment from specialists, with speculation regarding a potential long-term absence.

Meanwhile, his former club, 1. FC Union Berlin, is facing a difficult start to the season, having earned only one point from four matches. Former coach Mauro Lustrinelli noted that the club has suffered a significant loss, as Ansah's physical presence and tactical intelligence were central to their attacking system.
