Wir hoffen, dass er am Dienstag wieder dabei sein kann." #FCBayern— Philipp Kessler (@kessler_philipp) October 30, 2021#Toppmöller about the injury to Lucas #Hernandez : “He was hit below the knee. We hope that he can be back on Tuesday.”#FCBayernAs part of a triple substitution by Bayern Munich, center-back Lucas Hernandez was one of the players removed from the match.Prior to the substitution, Hernandez was playing with no visible discomfort, however, upon watching the match sporting director Hasan “Brazzo” Salihamidžić’s reaction seemed to be indicating that something may, in fact, be off with the star Frenchman.As Hernandez walked to the sideline, Brazzo’s face showed some visible concern.The two men had a verbal exchange and Salihamidzic slapped the overhang in the bench area in frustration. The moment was captured on the ESPN feed.Triple sub for Bayern

With Dayot Upamecano’s highs and lows, Niklas Süle’s struggles against Union Berlin, and a lack of many other center-backs, Hernandez getting any sort of knock will make a already-shaky Bayern defense even worse.BFW will keep you posted regarding any further updates about Hernandez’s status moving forward.

Eintracht Frankfurt v FC Bayern München - BundesligaPhoto by Alex Grimm/Getty ImagesHopefully Niklas Süle’s back is not an ongoing issue.Bayern Munich’s injury luck is not getting much better.Defender Niklas Süle is the latest player to be felled by an ailment per kicker:In bright sunshine, FC Bayern Munich held a public training session on Tuesday. Several hundred spectators watched the unit in the morning - but they didn’t see Niklas Süle. The national defender, who will move to arch-rivals Borussia Dortmund on a free transfer at the end of the season, was surprisingly not seen at the training ground on Säbener Strasse. A little later, FC Bayern announced that Süle “is struggling with back problems” and was therefore unable to take part in training.Süle’s absence could be an issue because Lucas Hernandez will be out with a suspension due to yellow card accumulation.Meanwhile, Leon Goretzka and Manuel Neuer are continuing their race to return to the lineup. Goretzka worked on the ball and did some intense running, but Neuer completed an individual session. Bouna Sarr also did some running on the side as he works to thwart off an injury.Sven Ulreich and Christian Früchtl were the primary goalkeepers in the first-team training and were joined by Bayern Munich U-19 goalkeeper Tom Hülsmann.Update #Süle: Fehlt heute aufgrund leichter Rückenbeschwerden. Wird behandelt. Goretzka und Sarr haben auf dem Nebenplatz trainiert. Neuer noch nicht im Mannschaftstraining. Davies und Tolisso fehlen. @SkySportsNews #FCBayern pic.twitter.com/H8PG7SojBo— Florian Plettenberg (@Plettigoal) March 1, 2022Update #Süle: Missing today due to minor back problems and is getting treatment. Goretzka and Sarr trained on the adjacent pitch. Neuer not yet in team training. Davies and Tolisso are absent. @SkySportsNews #FCBayernAs noted by Florian Plettenberg above, Corentin Tolisso (torn muscle) and Alphonso Davies were not present on Säbener Straße.
