Still weeks away from return
Doue remains some distance from returning to action after suffering a calf injury approximately four weeks ago and is expected to resume team training in the coming weeks, according to coach Carles Martinez. "Guela is doing better, but he's still not close. Overall, he needs to start training with the group in the coming weeks, and then we'll see how far along he is in terms of being fully match fit."
Analysis: Doue has been sidelined since suffering a significant right calf injury in training shortly after making his Bayer Leverkusen debut against Augsburg, during which he appeared off the bench. Although his recovery is progressing according to plan, the right-back remains in rehabilitation and is not yet close to rejoining the squad. Coach Martinez expects him to gradually reintegrate into team training over the coming weeks, with his readiness for competitive action to be assessed afterward. The latest update suggests Doue will remain unavailable for the immediate future, delaying his opportunity to establish himself in Leverkusen's defensive rotation.
Set for further recovery
Doue (calf) will not be ready for Bayer Leverkusen's trip to Mainz after the international break, with the right-back still limited to rehabilitation work, according to Kicker.
Analysis: Doue suffered a severe right calf injury in training shortly after his debut against Augsburg and has been working through a rehabilitation program since. His condition has improved, but he remains limited to rehabilitation work and does not expect to be available for the Mainz match after the international break, while individual running is reportedly still around a week away. That leaves the 23-year-old with further rehabilitation and conditioning to complete before a squad return can be considered, though his own expectation is that he will be playing again within a few weeks.
