"Goretzka will miss the first leg due to the injury confirmed by the scans, which will require him to be sidelined for several days." It was confirmed that Bayern Munich midfielder Leon Goretzka was injured in his knee during Saturday's match against Freiburg. This means Goretzka (29 years old) will be absent from the team for a temporary period, which is already missing several players due to injuries.
The team is missing the recent appearance of its squad members Dayot Upamecano and Alphonso Davies, and those who will miss their role in the match against Feyenoord Rotterdam in the UEFA Champions League last Wednesday. The timing of Goretzka's muscle injury coincides with his inclusion on the injury list, where rumors circulated about his transfer to another team, although this matter has not been officially announced.
"I feel sorry for the injury and I will come back stronger soon," Goretzka stated after announcing the extent of the injury he sustained. After these multiple injuries, the medical team is working on a treatment plan for the players to maintain their fitness in upcoming matches in the best possible shape.
