His assistant coach Dino Toppmöller (40) took over the management on the sidelines in the super win on Wednesday evening. Nagelsmann had kept in touch by phone call and WhatsApp messages through analyst and assistant trainer Benjamin Glück (35) and headset assistant Xaver Zembrod (55).
On Thursday lunchtime, Nagelsmann tweeted: “Given the circumstances, I’m fine.”
According to the Bavarian Corona Regulation, the head coach must now be in quarantine for at least 14 days (up to a negative test). According to BILD information, the Bavarians are still hoping that Nagelsmann does not have to miss four games, but can test himself earlier with a negative PCR result.
Corona Bavaria: After Müller, Corentin Tolisso (27), Leon Goretzka (26), Serge Gnabry (26), Benjamin Pavard (25), ex-Bavarian Javi Martinez (33 / Qatar SC) and Physio Gianni Bianchi (60) now the eighth case with the German record champions.
In the case of Gnabry and Niklas Süle (26), tests in 2020 were false-positive. Kingsley Coman, 25, was quarantined in September 2020 after coming into contact with an infected person.
Now it hit Nagelsmann, although, according to the club, he had complete vaccination protection – against Hoffenheim (Saturday, 3.30 p.m. / Sky and live ticker at BILD.de), Toppmöller will definitely be the boss of the Bayern-Bank again!
