Union Berlin defender set for spell on the sidelines

1. FC Union Berlin will be without Robert Skov in the weeks to come.

That's according to Bild, who reports that the Dane has suffered a foot injury that will likely keep him out for two to three weeks.

Skov was forced off in the first half of Union's 2-1 defeat at Borussia Mönchengladbach last week.

The 28-year-old has emerged as Union's starting left-back since Steffen Baumgart took over as coach.

Tom Rothe, who came on to replace Skov against Gladbach, is expected to step in while the Dane is out.
