Is FC Bayern threatened with another injury-related absence? Kingsley Coman was substituted in the 2-0 win against TSG Hoffenheim. Julian Nagelsmann made an initial prediction after the game.
Bad luck with injuries at FC Bayern has often struck in the past few weeks. In addition to Lucas Hernandez, Bouna Sarr, Manuel Neuer and Leroy Sane, the Munich team currently has four injured players. With Kingsley Coman, another FCB professional could join them.
After surviving a yellow-red suspension, the Frenchman celebrated his comeback in the starting XI in the 2-0 away win against TSG Hoffenheim. The winger was one of the most conspicuous Munich players in the first half.
After the change of sides, Coman had to be substituted with a suspected muscle injury. Particularly bitter: The 26-year-old was recently out for weeks with a torn muscle fiber.

Nagelsmann: “It was a precautionary measure”
After being substituted, Coman disappeared into the dressing room, visibly pissed off. After all: FCB coach Julian Nagelsmann gave the all-clear after the game: “It was a horse kiss, so we took it down as a precaution. But I don’t think it’s a structural injury,” emphasized the Munich head coach.
