Montrell Culbreath will miss the start of Leverkusen’s Bundesliga and DFB-Pokal campaigns after suffering an injury in yesterday’s 2-1 friendly win over Sevilla, the club said.

The 18-year-old midfielder was withdrawn in the 36th minute for Die Werkself during the pre-season match.

The nature of Culbreath’s problem and a recovery timeframe have not been disclosed, with further examinations required before a diagnosis.

There was brighter news regarding Robert Andrich, as no structural injury was found after his 76th-minute substitution against Sevilla.

He will train individually in the coming days and will miss Leverkusen’s trip to England to face Nottingham Forest and Newcastle United.
