As if it wasn't enough that RB Leipzig lost 5-1 to Wolfsburg on Saturday, they also saw Castello Lukeba get injured.

According to Bild, the centre-back has suffered a hamstring strain and will miss at least Wednesday's DFB-Pokal match against Eintracht Frankfurt and Saturday's trip to Holstein Kiel.

The injury could not have come at a worse time for Leipzig, who are winless in their last six matches.

Leipzig's injury list is already long and includes key players such as David Raum and Xavi Simons.

Lukeba has established himself as a regular in the Leipzig defence this season, making 15 appearances.
