Yet to feature in preseason
Ronnow (groin) hasn't played in any of Union Berlin's first three preseason friendlies.
Analysis: The goalkeeper suffered a season-ending injury in late April, and his absence from friendly matches suggests he might not be ready to play yet. Union will play six more friendlies before opening their 2026/27 season against Braunschweig in the DFB-Pokal. Their Bundesliga campaign will begin against Frankfurt on Saturday, Aug. 29.
Season ending
Ronnow (groin) is out for the rest of the season due to a muscle injury in his groin, according to his club.
Analysis: Ronnow will not return for the final three games of the league season, as he will instead be held out as he recovers from a muscle injury. Unfortunately for the club, this will leave them without their starting keeper, leaving Carl Klauss to likely start, as Matheo Raab (hand) is also done for the season. Ronnow ends the campaign with a pretty average season, recording five clean sheets, 54 goals allowed and 77 saves in 30 appearances.
Adductor injury could end season
Ronnow suffered an adductor injury on the inside of his right thigh during Friday's loss at Leipzig and could miss the remaining three Bundesliga fixtures if the diagnosis is confirmed, according to BILD.
Analysis: Ronnow had to be replaced in the 31st minute after taking a knock and being unable to continue, and the reported diagnosis points toward an absence of several weeks that would effectively end his season. An official confirmation from the club is still pending, but the situation is deeply concerning for Union Berlin given that second-choice goalkeeper Matheo Raab (hand) is also sidelined for the rest of the campaign, leaving Carl Klaus as the most likely option to step between the posts for the final stretch of the campaign.
Subs off against Leipzig
Ronnow suffered an injury after taking a goal kick in the first half of Friday's visit to Leipzig.
Analysis: Ronnow made two saves and conceded two goals over half an hour of play before his forced withdrawal. While his injury still needs to be assessed, he's at serious risk of missing future action, which would leave the team without its first and second-choice keepers given that Matheo Raab (hand) is also sidelined. Therefore, Carl Klaus could get some rare opportunities after replacing Ronnow in the weekend's game.
