In a statement, Bayer Leverkusen announced, “We will be without Amine Adli for the rest of this year. The attacker fractured his left fibula during last night’s draw against Brest and is not expected to be back until January 2025.”
Adli had come on as a substitute in the 63rd minute but was forced off in the 81st minute after a heavy challenge from on-loan Borussia Dortmund defender Soumaila Coulibaly.
Per getfootballnewsgermany, Leverkusen's sporting director, Simon Rolfes, expressed concern about Adli's condition, stating, “Amine’s injury is the bad news today. We are very worried about him. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look good. He is in a lot of pain.”
He added that the tackle was excessively hard and indicated that further medical examinations would be conducted to assess the full extent of the injury.
This setback comes at a challenging time for Leverkusen, who are also dealing with the impact of Victor Boniface's recent injury.
The Nigerian striker has been in fine form this season but has faced his challenges following a ghastly car accident on Sunday. Boniface's contributions have been vital for Leverkusen, and losing Adli will further strain their attacking options as they navigate both domestic and European competitions.

Leverkusen will need to adapt to these injuries while hoping for a swift recovery for both Adli and Boniface to maintain their competitive edge in the Bundesliga and beyond.
