The Superliga's top scorer, Franculino, sustained an injury last December and was sidelined for much of the spring season. This setback significantly impacted FC Midtjylland's title hopes, according to the club's sports director Kristian Bach Bak during a podcast with fan outlet "Sort Snak".
"The injury hit everyone hard, especially Franculino himself. It's unfortunate for him most of all, but had 'Francu' remained fit and maintained his autumn form all season, we might have secured another championship", Bak stated.
FC Midtjylland ultimately finished second behind AGF in the league but claimed victory in the Danish Cup final against FC Copenhagen.
