Leverkusen (dpa) - Bayer Leverkusen may have to do without winter access Timothy Fosu-Mensah for months.

“I don't hope it's true, but I'm afraid that there will be something on the cruciate ligament again,” said coach Peter Bosz after the 1: 2 home defeat against SC Freiburg: “That would be the third this season. »

The Brazilian Paunlinho has not played a minute this season because of a torn cruciate ligament in July.

Julian Baumgartlinger has been sidelined with a cruciate ligament injury since the end of January.

The Dutchman Fosu-Mensah (23) came from Manchester United in the winter and had always been in the starting line-up in the last five Bundesliga games.

He had a cruciate ligament injury in April 2019.

"But this time it's the other knee," said Bosz.
