Takashi Inui has had a tough beginning to the 2013/14 German Bundesliga season.
The 25-year old Japanese attacking midfielder was one of Eintracht Frankfurt's key players last season, scoring six goals and providing nine assists in 33 starts.
However, the opening 15 matches of the new campaign have been dry for Inui who has yet to tally a goal or assist in eight starts.
The former VfL Bochum man started last week's 2-1 loss to Hoffenheim and will be looking to make an impact when the 15th-placed Eagles head to second-placed Bayer Leverkusen, who will have Asian rivals Son Heung-min (South Korea) and Robbie Kruse (Australia) in tow on Sunday.
