Xaver Schlager Injury: Suffers nasal fracture in training

Schlager has suffered a nasal fracture in training on Wednesday and will wear a mask, according to Sky Sport.

Schlager suffered a nasal fracture in training on Wednesday and a face mask is being made for him to allow the Austrian to play. This is another unfortunate setback for the midfielder who has been dealing with all kinds of injuries over the past few seasons and is starting the new one with yet another issue. Schlager will hope that this latest injury won't slow him down before the start of the Bundesliga campaign since he is expected to be a starter in midfield for Leipzig.
