"Bayern Munich's backline has been ravaged by injuries over the past year. Alphonso Davies has missed six months with a knee (ACL) tear. Due to a recurring metatarsal fracture, Hiroki Itō has only played 285 minutes for Bayern since his transfer from Stuttgart. Raphaël Guerreiro and Josip Stanišić are both out with recent injuries. Toward the tail end of the 2024/25 campaign, center-back Kim Min-jae battled through an achilles injury that dropped his form."
"After Tah earned an early yellow card against Chelsea, Kim has looked phenomenal. In the 68th minute against Hoffenheim, Kim was substituted due to a calf injury. Bayern fans let out a collective snort of frustration but will be pleased with the latest injury update from Sky Sport (via @iMiaSanMia). Kim Min-jae will be rested for a few days and could be available in time to make the squad against Werder Bremen on Friday."
Bayern Munich's defense has suffered multiple long-term absences, including Alphonso Davies (six months, knee ACL), Hiroki Itō (recurring metatarsal fracture, 285 minutes played), Raphaël Guerreiro, and Josip Stanišić. Center-back Kim Min-jae endured an achilles injury late in 2024/25 that reduced his form and led to Jonathan Tah taking his place. After Tah's early yellow versus Chelsea, Kim's performances improved noticeably. Kim withdrew in the 68th minute against Hoffenheim with a calf strain. Sky Sport provided an update that Kim will rest for a few days and could be available for the Werder Bremen squad on Friday, aided by a six-day break.
