Ademola Lookman will not play a part when RB Leipzig host Mainz 05 at Red Bull Arena in Saturday’s German Bundesliga game.
The 22-year-old forward missed his side’s 6-1 thumping of Wolfsburg in a Cup tie on Wednesday due to a pelvis injury.
Lookman is yet to recover from the back problem and will be missing in action when the Red Bulls take on Sandro Schwarz’s men, according to a statement on the club website.
The Anglo-Nigerian secured a permanent move to the Red Bull Arena from Everton in the summer after previously impressing on loan with the club.
