Bellarabi sidelined – Bruised ribs for Tah
Bayer 04 Leverkusen will have to manage without winger Karim Bellarabi for the time being. The 32-year-old suffered a thigh injury on Sunday 10 April in the Bundesliga match at VfL Bochum (0-0).
Bellarabi’s teammate Jonathan Tah was substituted due to injury at Bochum and bruised ribs have been diagnosed. Both players will work on a speedy return to the Bayer 04 squad at the ‘Werkstatt’, the Leverkusen rehab centre. It is hoped that Tah will recover soon.
