Leverkusen striker Patrik Schick will be out of the game for several weeks due to a muscle injury from today’s German League match in Stuttgart. The 24-year-old footballer will most likely not help the Czech national team in the October duels in Cyprus, Israel and Scotland.
Schick scored the first Bundesliga goal behind Leverkusen in the seventh minute, but limped off the field in the next twelve minutes due to thigh problems and was replaced.
“Schick looks like a muscle injury. He’ll be out in a few weeks,” Bayer coach Peter Bosz said at a press conference, whose charges eventually drew 1: 1 in Stuttgart.
At the beginning of September, Schick transferred to Leverkusen for more than 700 million crowns from AS Roma. He played four competitive matches for the German team and scored two goals.
In October, due to the long coronavirus break in the first half of the year, three national team matches will take place unusually instead of the traditional two. On Wednesday, October 7, the Czech team will first present itself in preparation for Cyprus and then take part in two outdoor duels of the League of Nations. He will first play on Sunday 11 October in Israel and three days later in Scotland.
