Emil Forsberg will not be fit in time for RB Leipzig's Champions League last-16 tie against Liverpool in Budapest on Tuesday.

The Swedish international remains sidelined with the knee injury that has kept him out of Leipzig's last four games.

"Unfortunately, Emil Forsberg isn't fully fit yet. He still has problems with changes in direction," Nagelsmann told reporters on Monday.

Additionally, 'Die Roten Bullen' will still be without Konrad Laimer and Dominik Szoboszlai.

Benjamin Henrichs, on the other hand, will come back into the squad after recovering from a knee problem, Nagelsmann revealed.

"It's looking good with Benjamin Henrichs. He will be on the plane," said the RB Leipzig coach.
