The 21-year-old suffered the injury on June 17 in the international match against Bolivia (1-0) and left the pitch in tears. In the first two games of the new Bundesliga season, Hincapie is still suspended anyway because of his red card on the penultimate matchday against Borussia Mönchengladbach (2-2).
