German Bundesliga club Bayern Munich said their goalkeeper and captain Manuel Neuer has suffered a minor tear in his left calf muscle, which will keep him out for some time."The injury was sustained during the match against Borussia Monchengladbach," Bayern wrote in an official statement, as quoted from the club's website.
In the match early Saturday morning WIB, which Bayern Munich won 4-1, Neuer only played the first half. He was replaced by Jonas Urbig in the second half.
Bayern Munich have not stated how long their captain will be out, but European transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that Neuer will not feature in the first leg of their 2025/2026 UEFA Champions League round of 16 tie against Atalanta.
Romano continued, Neuer is also likely to miss the second leg in Munich.
