FC Twente has suffered a second setback after last weekend’s fine home victory over AZ (2-1). After Manfred Ugalde, who scored both goals for Enschede, coach Ron Jans will also have to do without Mees Hilgers for the time being.

The 21-year-old defender, who has played in 25 league games this season and scored once, was injured just like Ugalde on Sunday and he too will be sidelined for several weeks, according to FC Twente.

Hilgers had also signed out on Monday for the upcoming practice matches of the Dutch Junior Team with Norway and the Czech Republic.
