Makoto Hasebe - Out multiple weeks Hasebe will miss multiple weeks due to a torn MCL, manager Oliver Glasner announced Friday ahead of Saturday's match against Bayer Leverkusen. Impact Hasebe doesn't need to worry about returning in time for the World Cup, as he retired from the Japanese national team in 2018. As a result, he may be out until 2023 if he's not back by early-November. In his place, Eric Junior could start at center-back unless the formation changes to a back-four, at which point Tuta and Evan N'Dicka would be the top starters.
