Bundesliga: Tella doubtful for Holstein Kel clash – Leverkusen Boss, Alonso

Nathan Tella is doubtful for Bayern Leverkusen’s away clash against Holstein Kel, according to manager, Xabi Alonso.

Tella featured for 85 minutes in the Bundesliga champions 0-0 draw against Bayer Munich last weekend.

The winger sustained a hip injury in the encounter.

Alonso said the player will be assessed ahead of the game slated for the Holstein-Stadion on Saturday (today).

“We’ll train now. We’ll see with Nathan [Tella], there are some doubts with him, but all others are okay [and expected to be available against Kiel tomorrow]. Tella? It’s not an injury, but discomfort,” he was quoted by Werkself Xtra.

“It has something to do with the hip. We need to see how he feels today. It’s not gone away, but it’s also not yet been decided whether he can play.”
