Initial reports suggest he will be sidelined for several weeks

Bayer Leverkusen's star midfielder Florian Wirtz has been diagnosed with a ligament injury following his early exit in the Bundesliga match against Werder Bremen on Saturday. The injury is a significant blow to both his club and the German national team.

Wirtz, who has been instrumental for Leverkusen this season, sustained the injury early in the second half of the match. Initial reports suggest he will be sidelined for several weeks, ruling him out of key fixtures, including the second leg of the Champions League tie against Bayern Munich and the UEFA Nations League quarterfinals with Germany.

The 20-year-old has been Leverkusen's standout performer in the Champions League, scoring 6 goals and leading the team's charge in Europe. His absence will be deeply felt as Leverkusen faces an uphill battle to overturn a 3-goal deficit against Bayern Munich in the second leg of their Champions League clash.
