Goretzka Gets Off to a Rough Start in England: Another Setback for the Former Bayern Star
Story updated
The story in brief
25-second readLeon Goretzka had certainly imagined his fresh start in the Premier League would go differently. After eight years with FC Bayern, the 31-year-old joined Aston Villa on a free transfer this summer.
But instead of taking the field for his new club, the midfielder is still watching from the sidelines. Injury problems have so far prevented him from making his debut in England.
Even after the international break, there’s still no green light for the former Bayern pro. As Villa coach Unai Emery confirmed, Goretzka will miss Saturday’s home game against Brentford.
