Bad luck with injuries! Next absence from the Bayern squad
Bad news for FC Bayern! Just a few weeks ago, Joao Palhinha had to stand in for the injured Aleksandar Pavlovic, and now the Portuguese himself will be out for several weeks. As the Munich club explained in a press release on Thursday, the six-man has suffered an adductor injury.
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen Palhinha was due to face Poland with Portugal's national team in the Nations League on Friday, but the injury has now forced the 29-year-old to return home and he will probably be out for three weeks, according to reports.
Alongside Hiroki Ito (broken metatarsal), Josip Stanisic (torn collateral ligament), Sven Ulreich (ill) and Pavlovic (broken collarbone), Palhinha is the fifth player that coach Vincent Kompany is currently unable to call upon.
Opportunity for Goretzka?
However, there is an opportunity for Leon Goretzka. The 57-time Germany team player has had to make do with the wildcard role this season, but Palhinha's absence means he could now be deployed in the number six position. Alternatives would be Joshua Kimmich or ÖFB professional Konrad Laimer.
