Tyler Adams will not a part in RB Leipzig’s final match of the Bundesliga season this weekend.
The German club announced Wednesday that Adams has returned to the United States in order to continue rehabilitation following a recent back injury. He will miss RB Leipzig’s season finale on Saturday against Union Berlin, with the club already clinching a second place finish.
Adams suffered the injury in a 2-0 league win over Stuttgart on April 25th, and since has missed two league matches and a German Cup Finals loss to Borussia Dortmund earlier in May.
The 22-year-old delivered a strong campaign for Julian Nagelsmann’s side, totaling 37 appearances across all competitions and scoring one goal. Adams showed off his versatility by playing as a defensive midfielder, a right-sided midfielder, and a right back.
Adams will now try to get back to full fitness ahead of the Concacaf Nations League Final Four in early June before the Gold Cup group stage in July. Adams played in a pair of November 2020 friendlies for Gregg Berhalter’s side, his first international action since March 2019 due to a combination of injuries and not being selected for duty.
The U.S. Men’s National Team faces off with Switzerland in St. Gallen on May 31st in a friendly before traveling to Denver for the CNL Final Four.
