Suffers injury against Augsburg Laimer was subbed out at halftime of Wednesday's draw against FC Augsburg, and Leipzig confirmed Thursday that he suffered an ankle injury.

Impact Laimer's 2021 is over as he's expected to miss multiple weeks, but the Bundesliga's winter break starts after this weekend so he has time to recover before the clash against Mainz on Jan. 8. Tyler Adams will likely slot into midfield in his absence against Arminia Bielefeld on Saturday.

Assists opening goal Laimer had an assist with his lone chance created while taking one shot during Tuesday's 2-1 win over Manchester City.

Impact Laimer set up Dominik Szoboszlai in the 24th minute assisting the opening goal of the match. The assist was the first in the Champions League for the midfielder coming from his lone chance created in the match.

Will play Wednesday Laimer (strain) will feature in the starting XI versus Club Brugge on Wednesday.

Impact Laimer will make his fifth start in UCL action despite having started just one in eight domestic appearances. In those prior four Champions League outings, the midfielder recorded three shots (one on target), two crosses (zero accurate) and 10 tackles.

Misses match against Hoffenheim Laimer has been ruled out of the match against Hoffenheim on Saturday.

Impact Laimer will not take part in Saturday's fixture. The midfielder could not recover in time from an adductors injury.

Struggling with adductor strain Laimer (adductors) will not travel with the Austrian national team, according to RB Leipzig.

Impact Laimer will be out for the national team after picking up an adductor injury. It's unclear what his timeline for return will be, and as it's a soft-tissue injury he is firmly questionable for a Nov. 20 clash with Hoffenheim. That said, he has the full two weeks to recover, so we should have an idea based on his training status.

Ready to return Laimer (strain) is available for Saturday's clash with Frankfurt, according to RB Leipzig's medical report.

Impact Laimer is an option for Saturday's match after missing a match with a muscle injury. It was never expected to be serious, and Laimer wasn't a major piece in the starting XI. Look for him to make the squad, and bench, Saturday.

Dealing with muscle issue Laimer (strain) is unavailable for a small time with a muscle injury, against RB Leipzig.

Impact Laimer is going to miss a small bit of time with a muscular injury that he picked up Saturday. The midfielder isn't a huge piece of the starting XI so this shouldn't impact too much on the pitch. His next chance to return is a Saturday trip to Frankfurt, Laimer will be one to watch in training over the week.

Takes two shots in rare start Laimer had two shots (one on target), two chances created, five tackles (two won) and three interceptions in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to PSG.

Impact Laimer was given the nod for a rare start here but actually turned in a very impressive display with efforts on both sides of the ball for one of his best displays all season. He's been generally out of form though and just finished his first full 90 with merely four starts all season and it'll be hard to trust him earning regular playing time solely on this night.

Nets in loss Laimer scored once on two shots on goal during Saturday's 4-1 defeat to Munich.

Impact Laimer scored his sides only goal in what turned into an ugly rout. The defensive midfielder was completely overwhelmed, but salvaged the performance with the goal. Next up is an equally tough clash with Manchester City.

Wins seven duels against Italy Laimer (undisclosed) had two successful take-ons and one interception and won seven duels and one of four tackles in Saturday's 1-2 loss to Italy.

Impact Laimer was probable coming into the game and did not look physically hampered, although he was a factor more on the defensive end than in the final third. He has posted one assist, four chances created, three crosses and eight tackles in four Euro games.

Ready to face Italy Laimer (undisclosed) hasn't been mentioned in the injury report and appears ready to start against Italy on Saturday.

Impact Laimer limped off Monday, but there's a chance that was simply cramping and he'll be good to go Saturday. He assisted in the opening match against North Macedonia, but he's managed just two shots and four chances created in three group matches, being subbed off early in all of them.

Limps off Monday Laimer had two shots (one on target) and a cross but limped off in the 72nd minute of Monday's match against Ukraine.

Impact Laimer battled a knee injury this past season and only returned in April, so the hope is that this injury isn't related. He started all three matches in group stages and if Austria advance, he may have to be replaced in the starting XI.

Gathers assist in opening game Laimer assisted once, created two chances, sent two crosses (one accurate) and made one tackle (none won) in the 3-1 win against North Macedonia on Sunday.

Impact Laimer was much better in his second start all season in the win Sunday. The midfielder had missed the entire season due to a knee injury, leaving very little in terms of expectations in the Euros. However, he managed to help on both sides of the ball and he eventually set up one of the goals for Austria. It remains to be seen what his role will truly be with the team. Although, if he starts, he is always worth the consideration.

Appears in friendly Laimer played for 62 minutes of Wednesday's friendly loss against England.

Impact Laimer only made three league appearances all season while returning from a knee injury but seems to be honing in on a return to full fitness just in time for the tournament. With a few different midfielders going through a similar process, it may not be fully clear who ends up starting in this area of the pitch for Austria. However, it's still Marcel Sabitzer, David Alaba and the attack which hold the most fantasy value from this group.
