RB professional Castello Lukeba has to come off early in the win against Werder Bremen. Now there is a diagnosis.

RB Leipzig will be without Castello Lukeba for the time being. The 23-year-old suffered a muscle injury to his left adductor muscle during the 2-1 win in Bremen on Saturday, the Bundesliga club announced. Lukeba was substituted in the 57th minute of the game against Werder.

A precise comeback date is currently still open and depends on the healing process, RB Leipzig said. However, the third-placed team in the table are currently very unlikely to play the defender in their home game against Borussia Mönchengladbach next Saturday.
