REVEALED: RB Leipzig LOST a box of shirts on the way to their Champions League clash with Tottenham… meaning Timo Werner wore a different sponsor to team-mates

Daily Mail | February 20, 2020

RB Leipzig were the victims of lost luggage on Wednesday after they arrived at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium with a set of incomplete matchday shirts for their Champions League clash against Spurs.

The mix-up left Timo Werner, Lukas Klostermann and Christopher Nkunku wearing Leipzig's away strip with a monochrome Red Bull sponsor while their team-mates had full-colour branding for the game.

However, after half-time, Werner and Nkunku were able to swap shirts to don the kit with a colourful sponsor while Klostermann kept the black and white sponsor version.
