In his press conference this afternoon, Ole Werner announced that Rômulo may be a doubt for RB Leipzig's game against Werder Bremen.

The Brazilian striker supposedly felt irritation in his knee and only took part in individual training this morning, 21 November. 

It was also confirmed that back-up defender El Chadaille Bitshiabu will be absent for several weeks with a thigh muscle problem. 

Fortunately for the Leipzig coach, Conrad Harder has underlined his eagerness to start more games going forward

"Both are very promising. Conrad is a bit more extroverted and powerful, while Tidi [Gomis] is more agile and a strong dribbler.

"They consistently show good, deep runs. They're at the beginning of their careers, and we believe they're capable of anything.

“I'm happy to have them both because they're developing very well,” said Werner, regarding Harder and fellow marksman Tidi Gomis today.
