""Medical examinations have shown that Ricardo Pepi has only sustained a minor strain in his upper leg. In the coming days, Pepi will work individually on his recovery before gradually rejoining team training," PSV said in a club statement."
""He said he felt something, but he could continue. I don't want to take any risks when he says something like that," coach Peter Bosz said after the match. "I'm not going to take any risks at this stage with someone who has slight complaints. Further examination will have to reveal what it looks like.""
Ricardo Pepi sustained a minor upper-leg strain during PSV Eindhoven's 2-1 win over Excelsior and will not play in the Champions League match against Bayer Leverkusen. Medical checks confirmed the strain and Pepi will work individually on recovery before gradually rejoining team training. Pepi had started for the fourth time this season after returning from a January knee injury and was substituted after just over 30 minutes versus Excelsior. The injury previously forced him to miss the Concacaf Gold Cup and September friendlies, and availability for the PEC Zwolle match is still unclear.
