Won't play season finale
Stach (ankle) is out for Sunday's match against West Ham, according to manager Daniel Farke. "Obviously, with Anton [Stach], a bit mixed news. So bad news is that he is not available for this game. The good news is that it is not a major injury. He just needs to be stitched anyhow. And if the game were next Wednesday or Thursday, he would be available. So it is not a major injury. Just for this game, it is not possible. He will definitely miss this game."
Analysis: Stach is going to miss the end of the season after suffering an ankle injury, needing stitches, and not being risked in the season finale. After also missing the German national team, this has been a rough week for the midfielder, now with his sights focused on a recovery heading into the next season. The club's lead midfielder ends the season with five goals and three assists in 29 appearances (28 starts) this campaign.
Left out of Germany squad
Stach (ankle) was not called up by Germany for the World Cup and remains a doubt for Sunday's season finale against West Ham.
Analysis: Stach had been stretchered off during the Brighton fixture with a painful ankle injury, and his omission from manager Julian Nagelsmann's squad is a deeply disappointing outcome for a player who had been pushing hard to earn a place in the tournament roster after returning ahead of schedule from a previous ankle ligament issue. The midfielder's availability for Sunday's final fixture of the Leeds United season will be assessed over the coming days, with the club monitoring his condition before making any decisions on his involvement against West Ham.
