Bayer 04 Leverkusen centre-back Mario Hermoso has been ruled out for the remainder of the 2024/25 campaign. 

The German champions announced on Tuesday that the defender, who is on loan from Roma, suffered ligament injury in his chest during Leverkusen's 2-0 defeat earlier this month. 

He underwent surgery in Madrid on Tuesday and will not be able to feature again this season. 

Hermoso joined Leverkusen on loan in the winter and has since made seven appearances for Die Werkself.
