Mertesacker to miss at least one week with eye injury

Wed 8th, September 2010

Bremen, Germany (Sports Network) - Werder Bremen will be without defender Per Mertesacker for Saturday's Bundesliga match with Bayern Munich as well as the club's Champions League opener against Tottenham after suffering an eye injury.

Mertesacker sustained the injury while playing for Germany in a Euro 2012 qualifier against Azerbaijan when he was hit by an elbow from Vagif Dzhavadov in Germany's 6-1 win.

He had to be taken off in the 11th minute because of the injury, and X-rays have revealed a broken eye socket that Bremen manager Thomas Schaaf said will keep him out for at least a week.

"He will surely miss Saturday's match as well as Tuesday's game against Tottenham," Schaaf told reporters on Wednesday.

"We will have to wait and see what will happen after that. This is not a good situation for us because apart from (defender) Naldo we are now missing a second central defender."
