Serge Gnabry will miss Bayern Munich’s Champions League trip to Manchester United on Tuesday night as he faces a spell on the sidelines, the Bundesliga champions have said.

Gnabry was injured in Saturday’s shock 5-1 defeat at Eintracht Frankfurt, having been forced off just five minutes after coming on as a second-half substitute.

A statement from the club said: “Serge Gnabry suffered a major strain in Saturday’s 5-1 defeat at Eintracht Frankfurt, a scan revealed last night.

“Gnabry, who was forced off the field just five minutes after coming on in Frankfurt, will therefore miss Bayern’s upcoming matches.”

The 28-year-old has scored one goal in 11 appearances this season.

Following Tuesday’s trip to Old Trafford, Bayern host Stuttgart next weekend and then face Wolfsburg away on December 20 prior to the winter break.
