Mainz 05 will be without Karim Onisiwo for the coming weeks.

The Bundesliga side confirmed on Tuesday that the striker suffered ankle ligament damage in Saturday's 0-0 draw with Darmstadt.

As a result, Onisiwo will be sidelined until December.

Die Nullfünfer sit in 16th place after a disappointing start to the season.

31-year-old Onisiwo has yet to find the back of the net this season, but has provided three assists in 11 appearances.
