Pohjanpalo sidelined with metatarsal injury

The Finland international picked up the injury in yesterday’s training session in Leverkusen after returning from the Champions League game in Monaco and he faces a long spell on the sidelines. Pohjanpalo suffered the metatarsal fracture in his right foot without the involvement of any other player. There will be a six-week rest period until the 22-year-old can start his rehabilitation programme.
