Leonardo Bittencourt had to be substituted early in the first of the home game against Eintracht Frankfurt. The Werder attacker had felt a strain in his upper torso during the game against SGE, according to Clemens Fritz, Head of Professional Football and Scouting, who reported the information while talking to the media on Monday.

“We have to wait and see how the next few days develop. We really can’t say currently if Leo will be able to play this weekend,” said Fritz. Bittencourt was replaced by Roman Schmid after 30 minutes.
