Blow to Bayern Munich. Less than two weeks before the knockout stages of the Champions League against RB Salzburg, the Bavarian club has just announced this Sunday that its goalkeeper Manuel Neuer “Has been successfully operated on the right knee joint on Sunday. FC Bayern will therefore have to do without its captain in the coming weeks., can we read in the FCB press release, without specifying the duration of unavailability.
The German international (108 selections) also communicated on his absence on his social networks: “Guys, I had a little operation on my knee this afternoon. Everything went well, so I will be able to start rehabilitation soon. Fingers crossed I’ll be back on the pitch in a few weeks.” It would therefore be Sven Ulreich who should protect the cages of the Reds during the month of February at least.
ℹ️ @Neuer manual wurde am Sonntag erfolgreich am rechten Kniegelenk operiert. Last #FCBayern muss somit in den kommenden Wochen auf seinen Kapitän verzichten. Gute Genesung, Manu!
