🇹🇷 Ozan Kabak, once a Liverpool emergency signing during the 2020/21 injury crisis, finally stepped back into action for TSG Hoffenheim after 16 months on the sidelines. The 25-year-old Turkish international came on in the closing minutes of Hoffenheim’s 3–0 Bundesliga win over FC St. Pauli, marking his first competitive appearance since tearing his cruciate ligament in June 2024.
According to Hoffenheim’s official report, it was a “perfect Sunday” — and rightly so. Goals from Bazoumana Toure, Andrej Kramaric, and Grischa Promel sealed the dominant victory before Kabak’s emotional late cameo capped off the day.
The former Red’s road back hasn’t been easy. His ACL injury, sustained in a pre-Euro 2024 friendly against Italy, came at a cruel time when his career momentum was building fast. Yet his determination and resilience have now paid off in full.
Liverpool fans will remember Kabak’s brief but crucial spell under Jurgen Klopp, where he made 13 appearances during a defensive injury crisis and helped steady the ship toward Champions League qualification.
After leaving Schalke and rebuilding his career in Germany, Kabak’s return to full fitness is more than just a comeback — it’s a statement of perseverance.
👏 From Anfield to the Bundesliga, it’s always uplifting to see a former Red rise again. For Ozan Kabak, this moment wasn’t just a substitution — it was a victory of spirit, patience, and belief. ❤️⚽
