Training in Leipzig
Xaver Schlager’s comeback is getting closer
The long-injured ÖFB team player Xaver Schlager could celebrate his comeback on the pitch before the end of the year.
As the German Bundesliga club RB Leipzig announced on Wednesday, the midfielder will be reintegrated into team training next week for the first time since suffering a cruciate ligament rupture at the beginning of May. If things continue to go well, Schlager could be ready to play again in December.
The 27-year-old suffered the injury on May 3 against Hoffenheim and subsequently missed the European Championships in Germany, among others. It was Schlager's second cruciate ligament rupture of his career. After a seven-month break - and therefore much quicker than his ÖFB team-mate David Alaba - a return to the pitch is now in sight.
