Ebrar Karakurt injury and recovery

Overview

In early July 2026, Turkish volleyball star Ebrar Karakurt was ruled out for six weeks, missing the Volleyball Nations League after sustaining a bone‑marrow edema and fluid buildup in her sacroiliac joint. By early August, the Turkish Volleyball Federation reported that she remained in treatment and had begun physiotherapy, but a safe return to competition was still uncertain. Officials estimated an additional one to three weeks before she could resume full play, and she was omitted from the squad for the upcoming European Championship pending further medical evaluation.
