RB Leipzig midfielder Xavi Simons will be out for several weeks after suffering a ligament injury in his left ankle during Wednesday’s 1-0 loss to Liverpool in the Champions League, the Bundesliga side said.
Netherlands international Simons, who is on loan from Paris St Germain, was substituted after a collision with Liverpool defender Andrew Robertson.
“A decision on how to treat the injury is yet to be made,” Leipzig said on Thursday.
