RB Leipzig have been hit by three fresh injury blows during the international break.

Die Roten Bullen announced on Wednesday that Yussuf Poulsen and El Chadailla Bitshiabu will both be sidelined for several weeks with muscular injuries.

Elif Elmas is also struggling with a muscle problem, but no diagnosis has yet been made.

With the winter break just a month away, it's not unlikely that the trio won't return to action until 2025.

On the positive side for Leipzig, Lutsharel Geertruida and Castello Jr are both set to return to training after muscular injuries.

Meanwhile, long-term absentees Xaver Schlager and David Raum are both making progress and could return in December if all goes to plan.
