Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer will miss his team’s upcoming matches because of an injury. The German club’s official media service shared an update on the player’s condition on social media.
A medical examination found a partial tear in a tendon in the 40-year-old goalkeeper’s right leg. Neuer sustained the injury last Saturday in Bayern’s away match against Mainz in the ninth round of the German Bundesliga. The Munich side won 2-1.
The exact date of the German goalkeeper’s return to the pitch is not yet known. The club said Neuer would be sidelined indefinitely.
