Bayern depleted by injuries after Real Madrid loss, implications for Germany’s Euro 2024 squad

MUNICH (AP) — Bayern Munich’s Champions League semifinal loss to Real Madrid has taken a big toll on the fitness of the team with implications for Germany’s European Championship squad.

Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel said Saturday that Serge Gnabry’s participation in the tournament is “super tight” after he was diagnosed Friday with what the club said was a torn muscle bundle at the back of his left thigh.

“And Leroy Sane — I don’t think we’ll see him on the pitch in the last two games,” Tuchel said. “He’s currently back in pain treatment. Jamal Musiala has also signaled to us that he has problems. His knee is very painful. There’s no way he’ll be involved tomorrow and probably not in the last game either.”

Bayern hosts Wolfsburg on Sunday before visiting Hoffenheim for its final game of the season next weekend. It will be Tuchel’s last in charge. He and the club agreed in February not to continue beyond the end of the season.
