Good news for Aránguiz
Good news indeed: Charles Aránguiz did not suffer a serious muscle injury in last Friday's 0-0 draw between Chile and Colombia. A medical examination today revealed tightening of the muscle in his thigh.
It remains to be seen whether Aránguiz will be available for Bayer 04 in Friday night's clash at home to RB Leipzig.
The Werkself midfielder went off injured 70 minutes into the game against Colombia. He picked up a second yellow card in the South American World Cup qualifier and is therefore suspended for Chile's important game on Wednesday against Uruguay. The Chile FA allowed him to return early to Leverkusen on Monday night.
