Leon Goretzka and Alphonso Davies have been missing from FC Bayern for months.
Now the comeback of the two Munich top performers is in the offing.
Munich – You have been missing from FC Bayern Munich around superstar Robert Lewandowski for months.
Two players who could use their assists to get the Polish striker into even more finishing situations.
Player number one: Leon Goretzka was considered by the bosses on Säbener Straße in Munich as a midfielder.

Player number two: Alphonso Davies caused a stir, especially with his appearances in the Champions League*.
But both have one thing in common: they have been missing from FC Bayern for months.
Goretzka is plagued by stubborn problems with the patellar tendon. The 27-year-old is actually intended to be the boss of the future alongside Joshua Kimmich.
Together with the Aggressive Leader as a congenial axis in midfield.
Davies, on the other hand, is sorely missed on the left flank - as a pacemaker, as the initiator of numerous attacks, as a permanent employee of the opposing team.
On the Saturday when Bayern clinched a hard-fought draw at 1899 Hoffenheim (1-1), there was at least a glimmer of hope for the two top performers.
You should return to the record champions - even quite soon.

As FCB coach Julian Nagelsmann said on the fringes of the game against the Kraichgauer, Goretzka should return to team training on Tuesday.
Nagelsmann also made a forecast for left winger Davies.
"He's looking good," said the 34-year-old from Upper Bavaria after the draw in Kraichgau: "The myocarditis has subsided, the best-case scenario has occurred," said Nagelsmann: "I hope he'll find his footing again quickly .
But he will be missing for another three to four weeks.”
FC Bayern: Goretzka and Davies should return in crucial weeks
After all: April and May are known to be the decisive weeks in football.
FCB could really use a Goretzka and a Davies.
For more compactness in the headquarters.
And for more speed over the left flank.
