The club confirmed the news on Friday via an official statement that he picked the injury in training on Thursday.
"Kofi Kyereh has contracted a cruciate ligament rupture during training and is out for the rest of the season," the statement said.
"In Thursday training, Kofi Kyereh twisted his knee in a duel. An examination at the Freiburg University Hospital revealed the diagnosis of a cruciate ligament rupture."
"An operation is to follow in the next few days. The offensive player will no longer be available this season. We wish Kofi a successful operation and a good recovery!"
