BILD are reporting that Paderborn midfielder Alban Meha is set to miss between three and four weeks as he recovers from a dislocated elbow suffered during training on Monday.
BILD also report that the midfielder has also tore ligaments in that same elbow.
28-year old Meha, who turns 29 in just under two weeks time, has made 18 appearances for a Paderborn side fighting strongly against relegation this season. In these 18 games he's scored three goals.
Last weekend Paderborn's survival hopes took a massive boost as they were unlikely 2-1 winners over Europa League chasing FC Augsburg. Meha was an unused sub.
Meha, a five time Albanian international, is contracted to the Benteler Arena outfit until the summer and there has been no documentation released regarding a new deal.
Meha moved to Paderborn from Eintracht Trier in the summer of 2011 and has become well known across Germany for his free kick prowess.
