The Houston Dynamo announced Tuesday that winger Lawrence Ennali will miss the remainder of the MLS season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament injury.
“It’s hard … but I will be back!,” Ennali said on Instagram.
Ennali scored his first goal in two league games for Houston in a 2-0 shutout of host Los Angeles FC on Saturday. He entered in the 70th minute and scored two minutes later on an assist from Franco Escobar. He later sustained the serious knee injury.
The Dynamo signed the 22-year-old German on July 18 as a full transfer from Poland’s Gornik Zabrze. The fee was not disclosed at the time, but the MLS club called it the largest under-22 initiative signing in franchise history.
Annali signed a contract with Houston through 2026 with a club option for 2027.
Ennali tallied eight goals and two assists in 70 matches over three seasons in Europe. Before joining Gornik Zabrze in 2023, he played for Germany’s Hannover 96 and third-division Rot-Weiss Essen.
The Dynamo are 11-8-7 (40 points) and tied for sixth with the Portland Timbers and Seattle Sounders in the West Division with one less game played.
