Not good news from FC Bayern: New coach Julian Nagelsmann is missing a lot of players anyway. Now two national players are returning after their vacation and are also struggling with injuries.
The personnel worries at FC Bayern could increase: defender Niklas Süle had to break off training on Thursday morning. As the picture reported, the 25-year-old went back to the locker room after just 13 minutes due to problems in his lower back.
The central defender, who only started training on Tuesday after his European Championship vacation, had previously only participated in the warm-up; the pain occurred when completing a fitness course.
Süle tried to solve the problems with light jogging and was in contact with physiotherapist Helmut Erhard, but there was no improvement. Nothing is currently known about an exact diagnosis and possible downtime of the central defender.
FC Bayern: Two EM drivers are still on vacation – and a lot of injuries
But Süle wasn’t the only headache for those responsible for Bayern: Thomas Müller, who only played an individual unit and is actually on vacation until July 31, completed coordination and pass exercises with fitness boss Holger Broich. The national player touched the inside of the thigh on the right knee several times. However, Müller was able to pull off his 45-minute program.
Before Müller, Serge Gnabry started training earlier than expected and even played a part in the defeat in the friendly against Borussia Mönchengladbach. Only the return of captain Manuel Neuer and Joshua Kimmich is still pending. FC Bayern have so far not won any of their preparation games, also because the new coach Julian Nagelsmann usually did not even have a B-squad available. In addition to those returning from vacation, FC Bayern are currently missing Corentin Tolisso (Corona), Marc Roca (torn ankle ligament), Alphonso Davies (ankle) and Lucas Hernandez (meniscus injury).
