Konrad Laimer to miss RB Leipzig's clash with Dortmund
Konrad Laimer has been ruled out of RB Leipzig's upcoming game against Borussia Dortmund due to illness.
RB Leipzig will be without Konrad Laimer for their Bundesliga clash with Borussia Dortmund on Saturday.
The defensive midfielder came off at half-time in Wednesday's 2-2 draw with Fortuna Düsseldorf because he was feeling ill and is still suffering from flu-like symptoms.
"You could see in the first half [against Fortuna Düsseldorf] that he had some problems and that he was feeling a bit ill," said RB Leipzig coach Julian Nagelsmann at the pre-match press conference and added:
"He had chills and fever after the game.
"He'll definitely be out because he's obviously suffering from a flu-like infection."
Yussuf Poulsen, Ethan Ampadu and Hannes Wolf will also be unavailable for Saturday's game at Red Bull Arena.
