Sepp van den Berg is currently on loan at Schalke and appears to have suffered a serious injury while on loan at the Bundesliga club.
Playing against Augsburg, the 20-year-old was attempting to shut down an opposition attacker and block the cross, when the horrific incident occurred.

The Dutch defender fell on his ankle and seemed to bend completely backwards under the pressure of his tackle.
It is not yet known how serious the injury is, but the club tweeted: ‘Sepp van den Berg is on his way to hospital with a suspected ankle injury. Fingers crossed for you, Sepp!’
