Kimmich surprises Henrichs in the hospital with kebab

The food in the hospital is notoriously not the best. Bayern professional Joshua Kimmich, who surprised his national team colleague Benjamin Henrichs after his Achilles tendon rupture, also knows this. On his YouTube channel, the defender from Bundesliga soccer team RB Leipzig reports on a culinary change before the operation.

“Uber Eats is knocking and I’m like, what is that? A kebab simply arrived. Jo Kimmich writes to me all the time anyway, really a great captain, great guy, really top in everything he does. And then he texts me: Did the kebab arrive? I think to myself: Huh, what’s going on?” said Henrichs.

Henrichs: “I cried”

The twelve-minute clip shows Henrichs, among other things, on his hospital bed. Two friends are visiting, one of them holds the kebab wrapped in aluminum foil into the camera. “He simply ordered a kebab to my room without me telling him what room number I had. “He ordered me a kebab here the day before the operation so that I could eat really well again and go into the operation strengthened,” reported Henrichs and laughed. The national player has already survived the operation. “The doctor says everything went smoothly. “Everything went well,” said Henrichs.

The 27-year-old sustained the injury in the 5-1 defeat against FC Bayern. The season is over for the DFB professional. “I cried so much. I knew it was something bad. “You also see the doctors’ faces,” said Henrichs, recapitulating the moments immediately after the injury.
