Confirmed: Two more COVID cases for Leverkusen
Two more Bayer 04 Leverkusen players were confirmed COVID positive on Tuesday.
Already dealing with several absences, B04 trainer Gerardo Seoane will have to do without attacker Paulinho for the coming weekend encounter against Borussia Mönchengladbach. The 21-year-old Brazilian, who played 78 minutes of the left-wing in Saturday's 2-2 draw with 1. FC Union Berlin, is in quarantine with a lightly symptomatic case of COVID.
