Bayern Munich have confirmed that Ismael Saibari and Serge Gnabry will not play again this year, sporting director Max Eberl said on Monday. According to kicker, Saibari could be sidelined until the spring, after both were hurt in the 2-2 draw with Borussia Dortmund.
Michael Olise also hurt his right knee in that match but returned to training on Monday. L'Équipe reports he is expected to be available for Tuesday's Champions League trip to Atlético Madrid, and Mundo Deportivo says he took part in the squad session. Transfermarkt adds that Gnabry will be out until the new year.
TuttoMercatoWeb says Vincent Kompany has few attacking options left. Transfermarkt reports the club will watch the winter market more closely, though no concrete plans have been reported. FootVal's valuation of Saibari is €59m, against his market value of €55m on Transfermarkt, and his contract runs until June 2031.
