The FC Bayern Munich squad is getting thinner and thinner.
Now another player has been injured - Julian Nagelsmann remains calm.
Munich - The injured list of FC Bayern continues to grow.
Marc Roca (24) tore an outer ligament in his left ankle during training on Friday.
“Marc will be out for six to x weeks.
That is very annoying and a shame because he has planned a lot and wanted to accelerate in a phase in which other players are not yet there, "said coach Julian Nagelsmann * (33) after the 2: 3 (2: 2) in the test against 1. FC Köln on Saturday.
FC Bayern: list of injuries before the season opener is getting longer
The Landsberger let it be known that both the Spanish midfielder * and defender Lucas Hernandez * (25 / torn inner ligament in the left knee) and left-back Alphonso Davies * (20 / torn outer ligament in the left ankle) at the Bundesliga opener on August 13 in Gladbach will probably be missing.
When asked about their chances of playing against Borussia, he says: “Difficult.

FC Bayern: Will the club still buy new players despite the corona-related savings plan?
In addition, the talents Christopher Scott (19) and Taylor Booth (20) with thigh injuries had to be replaced against Cologne. Nagelsmann is concerned that the preparation phase is getting tight with his talent squad without top stars. Robert Lewandowski * (32) & Co. will not return until the end of July. "It will be difficult how we can get through there until we integrate the national players," emphasizes Nagelsmann. “The training squad is what it is. We have to try to keep the players healthy. ”The professional department could“ not take away any players from the U23 either ”because they had already started in the regional league.
Most recently, the Bayern bosses and the coach emphasized that the current squad was strong enough. But the question about the new injuries is: Will the record champions still buy new players this summer despite the corona-related savings plan? “You have to react to the current situation,” emphasizes Nagelsmann and explains: “When we have a lot of injuries, it is normal that we have to look. But if these injured people only have to take a six-week break, we don't have to get hectic.
FC Bayern * is currently not planning any transfers.
Nevertheless, those responsible are observing the market.
If a player the club has on the list suddenly becomes available at a reasonable price, or if Stars are injured for months, more newcomers could come.
Nagelsmann was brought in from RB Leipzig for a basic amount of 15 million euros.
With Dayot Upamecano (22 / for 42.5 million from Leipzig), Omar Richards (23 / free transfer from Reading) and Sven Ulreich (32 / HSV contract terminated), FC Bayern strengthened its star-studded squad early on.
