RB Leipzig: Rocco Reitz trains again with the team. The 24-year-old midfielder, who fell ill in May, has begun his comeback in the training week. Good for RB Leipzig: It's moving forward! At the start of the new training week, the 20-million-euro newcomer trained for the first time again completely with the team.
What's happening?
Reitz could already train parts of the training last week in the training camp in Saalfelden (Austria) without any problems. Now the load should be increased further. If everything continues to run according to plan, a comeback for the Bundesliga start around the first three matchdays is the goal, according to BILD information.
Why is this important for RB Leipzig?
It would also be important for the team colleagues of Reitz. Captain David Raum (27) said recently: „He's not quite at 100 percent yet, but if we get him fit, he's really a great addition.“
What comes next?
Also good: newcomer Abdoul Koné (21) is training again for the first time after his shoulder injury in the right shoulder. Ridle Baku (28), Romulo (24/both load management) and Lukas Klostermann (30/hip problems) trained separately from the team. DFB jewel Assan Ouédraogo (20) is continuing his rehab program at RB Leipzig after a shoulder injury. Top scorer Christoph Baumgartner (27/thigh) is still in Austria, continuing his rehab at the Athlete Performance Center of Red Bull.
Shock about Estéve
Shock on the side: newcomer Maxime Estéve (24) walked into the dressing room after training with a bandaged thigh - and not quite round. But it's supposed to be nothing serious.
RB Leipzig is currently in 4th place in the Bundesliga table, 20 points behind the leaders Bayern Munich. The team has scored 56 goals and conceded 36 in the new season (+20 goal difference). The next match is on February 6, 2027 against Hamburger SV. Currently, Viggo Gebel is injured.
