Bad news for Bayern: Joshua Kimmich will be out for the rest of the year. The national player has already been operated. The trigger was a foul against Dortmund’s Erling Haaland.
National player Joshua Kimmich will be absent from Bayern Munich until at least the end of the year following his knee injury in the Bundesliga game against Borussia Dortmund. The 25-year-old midfielder underwent surgery on the lateral meniscus of his right knee on Sunday night.
The German record champion’s medical department assumes that the flexible Kimmich will be available again in January, as announced by the club.

Bayern reacted relieved that Kimmich’s injury was not as serious as feared. “We are happy that Joshua will probably be available to us again in a few weeks,” sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic said in the statement.
“We will give him the best possible support during his rehabilitation.” Kimmich was injured in a duel with BVB pro Erling Haaland in Dortmund in the 36th minute in Munich’s 3-2 draw on Saturday night.
