RB Leipzig: "Szoboszlai is at the beginning of his career, so it's important not to rush anything"

"Regarding Dominik Szoboszlai, I cannot tell you when he will be able to play." RB Leipzig manager Julian Nagelsmann spoke at the press conference last Friday ahead of the Bundesliga match against Werder Bremen about the return of injured footballers, but there was little new about the Hungarian midfielder.

On March 19, EM Sports Consulting management office, that represents the footballer who scored the winning goal in the Euro 2020 play-off finals against Iceland, announced that the rehabilitation was progressing at the right pace. However, due to the nature of the injury, patience is needed, and it is likely that the Hungarian attacker will be able to resume full training in May so that he can start preparing for this summer's European Championships with the national team. A few days later, RB Leipzig announced on its official Twitter account that the player missing because of inflammation of the pubic bone had already started football training, although separately from his teammates for the time being.

Well, that's the story for now.

On the positive side, the footballer does not feel any pain during ball and various running exercises, so there is still a chance that he will join his teammates next month. An MRI scan will be carried out on Tuesday morning, and the check-up will show what condition the bones are in and whether recovery is still going as planned.

Leipzig, that has been employing Péter Gulácsi and Willi Orbán as key players for years, will have three Bundesliga games in May. If everything goes according to plan, the 20-year-old footballer will be able to play in one of the meetings.
