Edmond Tapsoba has been given the all-clear to play in Bayer Leverkusen’s away game against Hoffenheim on Saturday.
The Burkina Faso international was substituted after injuring his hand in the midweek win over Sandhausen, but Leverkusen coach Xabi Alonso has revealed that he’s ready to feature.
“It was a minor injury, he doesn’t need surgery,” Xabi Alonso told reporters at the pre-match press conference.
“There’s no problems for Saturday and he is training today.”
This means that, with the exception of Arthur and Patrik Schick, the Spaniard will have a full squad at his disposal for tomorrow’s game.
Leverkusen go into the weekend on top of the table, two points ahead of Bayern.
