On bench against Leipzig Alario (undisclosed) is in Leverkusen's match day squad for Sunday's clash against RB Leipzig.

Impact Alario has missed Leverkusen's last two Bundesliga games with an undisclosed injury, but he's back on the bench on Sunday and could get some playing time.

Out Saturday Alario (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's clash with Bochum, Leverkusen announced.

Impact Alario will miss the match with an undisclosed injury that the manager didn't comment on. The hope is that it's just fitness related, and that he will be able to return Sunday, away to Leipzig. If not the returning Patrik Schick will likely reclaim his starting XI spot immediately.

Starts, misses penalty kick Alario missed one penalty kick during a 2-0 loss Saturday versus VfL Wolfsburg.

Impact Alario started in place of Patrik Schick, who had been unavailable due to an ankle injury. The former's stat line was most memorable for his last-minute penalty kick that opposing goalkeeper Koen Casteels saved. Alario remains without a Bundesliga goal since April.

Available against Dortmund Alario (groin) is available for selection in Saturday's clash against Dortmund.

Impact Alario has been out for just over a month with a groin injury, but he has recovered and could make his season debut this weekend. He scored 11 goals in 25 Bundesliga appearances (12 starts) last year, and will likely reprise his impact substitute role behind striker Patrik Schick.

SEPTEMBER 8, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Officially ruled out Alario (groin) will not play in Saturday's clash with FC Augsburg despite rejoining first-team training.

Impact With the extra time off thanks to the upcoming international break, Alario should be back in contention for a spot in the starting XI as early as the club's matchup with Borussia Dortmund on Sept. 11. Given his offensive acumen, he racked up 11 goals in 25 matches last year, Alario figures to provide solid fantasy value moving forward.

AUGUST 27, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Back at team training Alario (groin) participated in Thursday's practice session in the lead up to a clash with Augsburg on Saturday.

Impact The fact that Alario was able to get on the training pitch with his teammates could indicate he'll at least be healthy enough to be named to the match-day squad against Augsburg. Even once fully fit, the forward is far from a lock for the starting XI on a week-to-week basis, though he still managed 11 goals last year in just 12 starts (25 total appearances).

AUGUST 26, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Working individually Alario (groin) completed individual training Wednesday but has yet to resume team training ahead of Saturday's matchup with FC Augsburg.

Impact Alario was originally expected to miss two weeks as a result of his groin problem, however, the fact that he isn't training with the squad doesn't bode well for his availability Saturday. The forward scored 11 goals on 41 shots (20 on target) in 25 matches (12 starts) last year and should provide solid fantasy value once cleared to play.

AUGUST 25, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Out at least two weeks Alario will miss the start of the season because of a groin injury suffered in Tuesday's training session.

Impact Alario missed the Olympics because of a muscle injury and there's a decent chance he returned to the pitch too soon from that issue. If it was a recurrence, he'll need to recover completely before being an option again. Fortunately for Leverkusen, they're a deep team in the attack.

AUGUST 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Extends contract with Leverkusen Alario (thigh) signed a contract extension through 2024 with Bayer Leverkusen on Monday.

Impact Alario has been the perfect role-playing forward over the past few seasons and still managed to score 11 times in 2020/21 despite only making 12 starts in his 25 Bundesliga appearances. A thigh injury may hamper his availability to begin the coming campaign, though his value shouldn't be in doubt when he finds his form.

AUGUST 2, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Olympics Alario will miss the 2020 Summer Olympics with Argentina after suffering a muscular injury.

Impact The fact that Alario won't be able to participate in the Olympic tournament for his country also doesn't bode well for him being ready to play in the season opener for Leverkusen against Union Berlin on Aug. 14. Though the forward made limited appearances in the starting XI (12 starts), he still managed to rack up 11 goals on 41 shots (20 on target), including a trio of braces last season. If Alario does miss any portion of the Bundesliga campaign, it could be more minutes for Paulinho, who is back in action following a lengthy knee injury.

In squad Thursday Alario (thigh) is set to feature in the match-day squad for Argentina against Chile on Thursday.

Impact Alario missed the final three games of the Bundesliga campaign due to a thigh problem but appears set to play for the national squad. During the domestic season, the forward started just 12 of his 25 appearances but still managed to rack up 11 goals on 41 shots (20 on target), two assists and 15 chances created.
