Schalke midfielder Weston McKennie was stretchered off the field during his team's 1-0 Bundesliga win against Eintracht Frankfurt on Sunday with an apparent shoulder injury.

The 21-year-old U.S. international landed awkwardly on his left shoulder after an aerial duel with Frankfurt forward Bas Dost in the 10th minute.

Sky Germany reported that McKennie dislocated his shoulder and was on his way to the hospital.

McKennie has been a regular presence in David Wagner's Schalke team, who are fourth in the table, playing in all but two of their Bundesliga games this season.
