Yan Diomande Injury: Called up for AFCON

Diomande was called up by Ivory Coast for AFCON, and will miss at least three weeks.

Diomande is going to be away from Leipzig for three weeks at minimum while he plays in AFCON with Ivory Coast. The forward has been a big part of the starting XI throughout the opening half of the campaign, scoring six goals and adding two assists from the wing. Johan Bakayoko should push for a starting role with Diomande away from the club.
