Axel Tape

Bayer Leverkusen
Bundesliga
GTD
Injury Hamstring
Est. Return 12/10/2025
Could play Wednesday
Tape (hamstring) could be an option for Wednesday's match against Newcastle, according to manager Kasper Hjulmand. "He hasn't played for two months, there's still a bit missing. He is ready, but needs some more time. Maybe he'll be there on Wednesday, he's ready to play."
ANALYSIS
Tape was thought to be an option last week, but after being held out, he could now make a return in UCL play Wednesday. This is good news for the defender after around two months out, as he did start in three of his seven appearances on the team sheet before his injury. That said, if he is an option, he will likely be a bench option, more of a rotational option.
