Ghana's Bernard Tekpetey to lose his position in the Fortuna Dusseldorf match-day squad after the club signed Steven Skrzybski on loan.
Tekpetey had a disappointing first half of the season with no goal and no assist, he failed to replicate the form which saw him bang in 10 goals for Paderborn to win last season Bundesliga II which earned them promotion.
Head coach Friedhelm Funkel has turned to the 27-year-old for goals as his side are in danger of being relegated.
Fortuna Dusseldorf lie one place and one point above the demotion mark after 17 rounds of matches.
