Emil Forsberg missed out on RB Leipzig's 1-1 draw with SC Freiburg in the Bundesliga on Saturday due to tonsillitis.

And 'Die Roten Bullen' will probably have to manage without the Swedish international once more when they face Mainz this weekend, according to Kicker.

Although Forsberg is getting better, RB Leipzig will be careful not to rush the 28-year-old back into action.

Forsberg has played 27 games for 'Die Roten Bullen' this season, racking up 10 goals and four assists.
