Guela Doué still has to miss time for Leverkusen
After a 2-3 loss at Elversberg, Leverkusen’s late boosts were Diaby and Doué, but Doué still has to serve his ban.
After Leverkusen’s disappointing 2-3 defeat at Elversberg, kicker reports that two late reinforcements were used in Moussa Diaby and Guela Doué.
Doué’s suspension isn’t over
The catch is that Guela Doué still has to sit out—he’s not fully available yet. Diaby, on the other hand, is ready to return, and kicker highlights that his presence boosts the team’s goal-scoring likelihood.
Alongside Diaby, Leverkusen could also get additional attacking options, with Carles Martinez potentially receiving more opportunities to contribute in the final third.
Adjusting the attack
So while Leverkusen has a clear offensive punch in Diaby, the timeline for Doué means the team will have to plan how to replace his impact until he’s back. The next matches will show how well that adjustment holds up.
