Champions League: major blow for Bayern ahead of PSG showdown

Barely crowned German champions after their 4-2 win over VfB Stuttgart, Bayern Munich players quickly put the celebrations behind them. In their minds, a single objective: the Champions League semifinal against Paris Saint-Germain. But as this major European date approaches, the Bavarian club must absorb a heavy blow. Serge Gnabry suffered a serious injury in training. The German international is suffering an adductor tear, an injury that should keep him out of action for several months. Unless there is a turnaround, the winger will miss not only the end of the season but also the upcoming World Cup.

A heavy absence with consequences for both Bayern and the German national team. The coach Julian Nagelsmann did not hide his concern: « This is very bad news, especially at this point in the season with so many important fixtures. We are all behind him and we will do everything we can to support him in his recovery. » Already ruled out of the last European Championship for physical reasons, Gnabry again sees his trajectory slowed by injuries. A cruel scenario for a key player at a moment when the sporting stakes are at their peak.
