Baku suffered an ankle ligament injury and is set to miss three to four weeks, according to his club.
ANALYSIS
Baku will miss several weeks due to an ankle ligament injury suffered in Friday's draw against Gladbach. The right back is expected to miss three games, leaving their starting right back out until the new year. While he is out, Lukas Klostermann is the main option to replace him on the right side of the backline, although Kosta Nedeljkovic can also be available for the spot. Baku will be reevaluated in the coming days, although it does not look good for the German.
