Since joining Eintracht Frankfurt from Olympique Marseille for a reported fee of 26 million during the winter transfer window, Elye Wahi has failed to make an immediate impact.

Now, the French striker has picked up a knee injury which, according to Kicker, will keep him out of action for several weeks.

The club have yet to put a timeframe on the injury, which kept Wahi out of Eintracht's 3-1 win over Bochum at the weekend.

Midfielders Hugo Larsson and Ellyes Skhiri were both forced off in that game - but fortunately for Eintracht, their injuries aren't serious, according to Kicker.

Larsson could be fit for the home game against VfB Stuttgart following the international break. That game may come too soon for Skhiri, but he shouldn't be out for long.
