Ouch! Leverkusen's Defender, Hermoso, Sidelined for Rest of Season after Surgery
Leverkusen's Hermoso Undergoes Surgery, Ends His Season - Out-of-season for Leverkusen's Hermoso following Operative Procedure
Looks like Bayer Leverkusen, Germany's football powerhouse, is gonna miss the slick moves of their Spanish defender, Mario Hermoso. The guy's got a busted chest muscle tendon, thanks to a rough tackle during a Champions League throwdown against Bayern Munich. Hermoso had a successful surgery in Madrid, and Leverkusen confirmed the news. Sadly, he's out for the rest of the season, rehabbing in Leverkusen.
Hermoso joined Leverkusen on a loan deal from AS Roma at the beginning of the year and played in four Bundesliga matches and both Champions League games against Bayern. With his loan deal expiring on June 30, it seems doubtful Leverkusen will snatch him up permanently. Roma's likely to hunt for a new buyer this summer, since Hermoso's contract runs till 2027.

The Commission has not yet adopted a decision on the application of Article 93 (2) of the Treaty regarding Bayer Leverkusen's potential permanent acquisition of Mario Hermoso, whose rehabilitation expires when the loan agreement with AS Roma does, on June 30. Hermoso's absence from Bayer 04 Leverkusen's Bundesliga matches for the rest of the season might have an impact on their performance.
