Thomas Müller is not seriously injured and can play in Bayern vs Freiburg at the weekend.
In the 4-2 win in Pilsen, Thomas Müller had to be replaced after half an hour due to injury. However, the injury seems half as wild.
After his corona illness, which caused him to miss the first leg against Pilsen and the classic against BVB, Thomas Müller was able to celebrate his comeback against the Czechs on Wednesday evening. The veteran made it 2-0 after 14 minutes and ten minutes later made it 3-0 through Leon Goretzka – but shortly afterwards he had to leave the field.
Nonetheless, FC Bayern doesn’t seem too worried that Müller could miss the upcoming top game against SC Freiburg (Sunday, 7:30 p.m.). After the final whistle, the national player himself spoke of a “nervous history on the old back”.
Julian Nagelsmann explained the injury in more detail: “His back muscles have contracted a bit, he has a slight hardening. It’s nothing bad, it’s a nerve and no risk for the weekend.” Müller will stop training on Thursday, but should be able to play on Sunday.
