Recently it became known that Bundesliga“>Leon Goretzka to avoid an impending operation of his injured knee, at least for the time being. As expected, there will be no quick return. As can be seen from a report by kicker, the midfielder will come back as an option for the earliest from February FC Bayern Munich into consideration.
Goretzka started his rehab on Tuesday. A program adapted to the knee that has been irritated for a long time (patellar tendon problem). And that is not approached rashly: According to the sheet, the FCB decision-makers are planning a three-week structure. Then a balance is drawn and the next (treatment) steps are considered.
The inventory can therefore be expected around the beginning of February. Until then, the Bundesliga duels with Cologne and Hertha BSC are scheduled for Munich – therefore without Goretzka. On February 5th, it’s at home against RB Leipzig.
There is no shortage of alternatives for the central midfield, Bayern coach Julian Nagelsmann. And they will probably no longer have to help out in other positions soon (Kimmich as right-back and Sabitzer as left-back), because the personal situation is gradually easing. Except for Lucas Hernández (in isolation in the Maldives), the most recently injured or corona infected actors are back on the field.
