Key Takeaways
- David Raum and Castello Lukeba have returned to full training with RB Leipzig.
- The defenders could feature in Saturday’s Bundesliga match against Bayer Leverkusen.
- Coach Ole Werner will make a final decision on their availability after Friday’s session.
RB Leipzig manager Ole Werner has issued a positive injury update on David Raum and Castello Lukeba. The pair missed last weekend’s 3-1 victory over Union Berlin due to fitness problems.
Speaking on Thursday, Werner revealed that both players have completed full training this week. This progress means they now have a chance of joining the squad for the trip to face Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday.
However, the coach will not make a final call until after Friday’s practice session. Werner wants to assess their condition carefully before deciding if they are ready for the clash with the reigning champions.
RB Leipzig currently sit third in the Bundesliga table. They will look to secure a positive result at the BayArena to maintain their strong position in the race for European football next season.
