FC Augsburg will be without centre-back Noahkai Banks for the immediate period after the international break.
- Banks, 19, injured the lateral ligament in his right knee while playing for Germany Under-21s.
- The injury occurred in Wednesday’s 4-1 win over Malta.
- He has left the Under-21 camp in Harsewinkel and will complete rehabilitation in Augsburg.
- Germany Under-21s will face Georgia on Tuesday at 18:00 without him in their final European Championship qualifier.
- A win would secure qualification for next year’s Under-21 European Championship in Albania and Serbia.
What it changes in the Bundesliga week
Banks is set to miss Augsburg’s derby at home to Bayern Munich on Saturday, kicking off at 15:30. Augsburg must plan their defensive options without the young central defender as Bayern arrive following the international window.
