The injury to the Dutchman, who joined the Werkself from Manchester United during the winter transfer window, requires an operation. Following that, Fosu-Mensah will complete his rehab at the Leverkusen 'Werkstatt'.

"It's a tough blow for Timothy," declared sporting director Simon Rolfes. "We will do all we can to support him and help him come back stronger from this difficult situation."
