GAME LOG

Late call for Berlin match Lee (toe) is a late call for Sunday's match against Union Berlin, according to manager Urs Fischer. "Jae-sung has come through all the sessions well and hasn't had any issues. We'v...
Impact Lee is the only player waiting on testing for Sunday's match, as he has continued to train but is not yet deemed fit. The club will give him time to train Saturday before making a final call, leaving him as a true game-time decision. He started in all 26 appearances while scoring four goals and two assists before the injury, so there is a slight chance he starts immediately if deemed fit.
1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE
Returns to partial training Jae-Sung (toe) participated in partial team training for the first time Wednesday, joining his teammates for running and passing exercises after fracturing a toe in early April, ac...
Impact Jae-Sung's return to partial training is an encouraging development after missing the last four Bundesliga fixtures with the toe fracture. The 33-year-old South Korean midfielder did not take part in the final training matches during the session, suggesting he is not yet ready for full contact work. Whether he can increase his workload over the coming days will determine if he becomes an option for the home fixture against Union Berlin. Nadiem Amiri and Paul Nebel are expected to continue covering his role in midfield until he is fully cleared to return.
3 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Could miss rest of season Lee (toe) was absent from team training for around three weeks and is at risk of missing the remainder of the season, according to Allgemeinen Zeitung.
Impact Lee had been given a three-week recovery timeline after being diagnosed with a small toe fracture in early April, but his continued absence from training suggests he has not yet been able to handle the intensity of sessions on the pitch. With only a handful of matches remaining in the Bundesliga season, the window for him to feature again is closing fast, and Mainz will not push him back before he is genuinely ready given the severity of the original diagnosis. Nadiem Amiri and Paul Nebel are expected to continue covering his role in midfield for the final stretch of the campaign if he can't return.

Set to miss three weeks Lee was diagnosed with a small toe fracture and is expected to miss around three weeks, according to sporting director Niko Bungert, per Allgemeinen Zeitung. "He has suffered a sma...
Impact Lee had already missed the Conference League quarterfinal first leg against Strasbourg before the diagnosis was confirmed, and his absence is a significant blow for Mainz heading into the final stretch of the season. The South Korean has been one of their most important midfield pieces this campaign, and coach Urs Fischer acknowledged the mounting injury frustration, noting the team seems cursed with absences right now. Sota Kawasaki and William Boving are the most likely candidates to absorb larger roles in the midfield until Lee and Nadiem Amiri (heel) are back up to speed.
APRIL 10 • ROTOWIRE
Absent due to toe injury Lee was excluded from the squad to face Strasbourg in Conference League action after missing Wednesday's training session because of a toe injury, the team reported Thursday.
Impact Lee could be at serious risk of seeing his 24-game starting streak in league play come to an end, although the full severity of his issue is unknown. This loss reduces the team's offensive midfield power, with the South Korean's six Bundesliga direct contributions currently ranking second on the squad. Sota Kawasaki might play a bigger role for as long as the key starter remains out.
APRIL 9 • ROTOWIRE
Goals in two straight Lee scored a goal while taking three shots (one on goal) and crossing twice inaccurately during Sunday's 2-0 win over Werder Bremen.
Impact Lee scored Mainz's second goal in the 52nd minute while leading his side with three shots. The attacker has goals in two straight matches to go along with six shots, a chance created and eight crosses over that stretch.
MARCH 15 • ROTOWIRE
Nets opener on Saturday Jae-Sung scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 2-2 draw against VfB Stuttgart.
Impact Jae-Sung netted the opener from close range, assisted by Danny da Costa. Jae-Sung recorded 20 passes and also made two clearances, two interceptions, one block and one tackle. He has now registered five goal contributions this campaign in 23 games.
MARCH 7 • ROTOWIRE
Inks contract extension Lee signed a contract extension with Mainz on Thursday, the club announced. "Lee is already in his fifth season with Mainz 05 and has consistently played a key role for our team. O...
Impact Lee signed a new contract with Mainz, extending his stay beyond the end of the season. The South Korea midfielder joined from Holstein Kiel in the summer of 2021 and has since made 159 competitive appearances, recording 28 goals and 24 assists.

Impact Lee put in a strong performance against Bayern Munich on Sunday, scoring a headed goal off a superb delivery from Stefan Bell over the opposing defense.

Trains with team Lee (hamstring) is back in team training, according to his club.
Impact Lee suffered a hamstring injury a few weeks ago but is now back in training, with the forward joining the team Wednesday. This is good news for the club, as he started in their first two games of the season before their injury. That said, he will hope to see the start when facing Dortmund, that is, if he is deemed fit.

Suffers minor hamstring injury Lee suffered a minor hamstring injury in Saturday's 2-0 victory against the United States in a friendly and is doubtful for Tuesday's game against Mexico, according to Korea JoongA...
Impact Lee was forced off in the 50th minute of Saturday's 2-0 victory against the United States in a friendly due to a minor hamstring injury in his right leg. The midfielder is a doubt for Tuesday's clash against Mexico and will likely be assessed upon his return to Mainz to determine if he will miss any time. That said, if the injury proves to be serious, his absence will force a change in the frontline with Arnaud Nordin as a possible replacement.
SEPTEMBER 8, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Three shots in draw Lee recorded three shots (zero on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Wolfsburg.
Impact Lee racked up three shots for a second straight game but has yet to land one on target. He also delivered his first chance created of the season and completed a minimum of 19 passes for a second straight appearance. Additionally, he registered at least one tackle won for a second straight game and is up to three tackles won in total.
SEPTEMBER 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Three shots despite loss Lee Jae-Sung generated three shots (zero on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Sunday's 1-0 loss to 1. FC Koln.
Impact Lee got the start in attacking midfield, as expected and was the most aggressive part of the first team for large parts of the match. The forward has plenty of upside, especially if Mainz can find the form that earned them a spot in European competition last season. Lee will hope to build on this volume, especially with injuries likely making him a focal point of the attack early in the season.
AUGUST 25, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Features in friendly Lee (face) featured in a pre-season friendly against Strasbourg on Saturday, confirming he is back available for Mainz.
Impact Lee suffered a double fracture to his cheekbone in a pre-season friendly but is now back available for Mainz after resuming team training in recent days and featuring against Strasbourg in a pre-season friendly on Saturday. This is good news for Mainz since he is an undisputed starter for the team, and it means the forward can play with a mask without any issue.
AUGUST 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Back in team training Lee (face) was spotted back in team training wearing a mask, according to BILD.
Impact Lee suffered a double fracture to his cheekbone in a pre-season friendly after hitting the post and has since then been working individually in training. Lee was however spotted back in team training this week wearing a mask which is good news since he will be able to train with his teammates for the final part of the pre-season to prepare for the start of the Bundesliga. The South Korean is expected to be a starter on the left wing for Mainz therefore seeing him in team training is excellent news for the club. That said, if the mask somehow does not allow him to play to his full potential and he has to miss or start on the bench for upcoming fixtures, Nelson Weiper will likely take his spot in the frontline.
AUGUST 8, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Suffers cheekbone fracture Lee suffered a double cheekbone fracture after colliding with the post during Friday's preseason match and is set to work individually for the remainder of preseason camp.
Impact Lee had a scary incident that resulted in a fracture to his cheekbone. The good news is that the injury was nothing too serious, however will work alone for the remainder of preseason. It is unclear this will delay his start of the season, as he does have another four weeks to recover and work on fitness before the start of the Bundesliga season on Aug 24.
