Training update: Sandro Wagner missing from practice, while Arjen Robben returns on limited basis
MediaThere is speculation that the absence of Sandro Wagner could mean the striker is in line for a potential exit from Bavaria.According to a report by Torben Hoffman of Sky Sports, it was a relatively busy day for news during Bayern Munich’s training session today.Despite not playing yesterday in Bayern’s 4-1 win over VfB Stuttgart, back-up striker Sandro Wagner did not attend team training, and no reason was provided by the club for the absence. Of course, such an event has fueled speculation that the big man could be on his way out of Bavaria.Sandro Wagner fehlte beim heutigen Training. Ein Grund dafür wurde @FCBayern nicht genannt.
Nach unseren Infos würde der Verein bei einem lukrativen Angebot und Wechselwunsch von Wagner dem Stürmer keine Steine in den Weg legen. @SkySportNewsHD @SkySportDE— Torben Hoffmann (@Sky_Torben) January 28, 2019Sandro Wagner was not at training today. No reason for his absence was given by FC Bayern. According to our information, the club would not put any obstacles in the striker’s way if made a lucrative offer and given Wagner’s desire for a transfer. @SkySportNewsHD @SkySportDEIf the information from Sky Sports is correct, Wagner’s absence could indeed be related to a potential move. On the flip side, it is also possible that Wagner was merely sick, injured, or had a personal reason to miss the training session. Regardless, this will be a situation to monitor as the transfer window will close on January 31st.Meanwhile, Arjen Robben returned to team training on a limited basis as he participated in some of the drills per the @FCBayernEN team account.Arjen #Robben was involved in parts of team training today #packmas #MiaSanMia pic.twitter.com/3EVnVbX0Z8— FC Bayern English (@FCBayernEN) January 28, 2019The Dutchman will surely be eager to hit the pitch as he hopes to prove that he can stay healthy and be productive heading into free agency this summer.

<b>Bayer Leverkusen’s Peter Bosz looking for a relentless attack to blitz Bayern Munich</b>
<a href="https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/bBFTZj1KujIcV_TuufgjWxgvtCY=/0x0:2255x1503/1310x873/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/62972952/Havertz.0.jpg">Media</a> The Bayer Leverkusen coach has a wealth of attacking talent, but can his squad show enough consistency and aggression to push the pace against Bayern? It is easy to look at the talent on <a href="https://www.sbnation.com/soccer/bundesliga/teams/bayer-leverkusen">Bayer Leverkusen</a>’s roster and surmise that the squad’s current standing in ninth place of the Bundesliga table represents a huge disappointment.With Kai Havertz, <a href="https://www.sbnation.com/soccer/bundesliga/players/250387/julian-brandt">Julian Brandt</a>, Leon Bailey, Kevin Volland, and <a href="https://www.sbnation.com/soccer/bundesliga/players/253654/karim-bellarabi">Karim Bellarabi</a> as integral pieces of Die Werkself’s offense, a lackluster Hinrunde showing, as well as the seemingly stunted development of Brandt and Bailey ultimately cost Heiko Herrlich his job. To provide a solution, Leverkusen hired Peter Bosz in an effort to salvage the season for the team, while also hoping to get players like Brandt and Bailey back to the dangerous and persistent form they displayed last season. After dropping a 1-0 decision to Borussia Monchengladbach in his first game, Bosz led Leverkusen to a 3-0 victory over <a href="https://www.sbnation.com/soccer/bundesliga/teams/vfl-wolfsburg">Wolfsburg</a> on Match Day 19, which gave the rest of the Bundesliga a glimpse of how Bosz will try to influence his young and talented roster. As Volland told <a href="https://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-soccer-germany/bosz-banks-on-leverkusen-firepower-to-hurt-bayern-idUKKCN1PP0YA?rpc=401&">Reuters</a>, Bosz is trying to help Leverkusen regain its once dangerous form: Peter Bosz likes to play an attacking game where we are dangerous over 90 minutes. We like to attack, we want possession, and I am confident we are going to be more consistent over 90 minutes in the coming weeks.Bosz is excited for the match-up with <a href="https://www.sbnation.com/soccer/bundesliga/teams/bayern-munich">Bayern Munich</a> and is eager to see his team square-up with such a formidable opponent. It is a meeting of two teams who like to go on the attack. This is always something good for the fans. Bayern have to win and they really want it. But if possible, I will happily do my former club (<a href="https://www.sbnation.com/soccer/bundesliga/teams/borussia-dortmund">Borussia Dortmund</a>) a favor. Should we win, it will be only for us, though.For Leverkusen, a big key against Bayern and for the rest of the season will be the play of Brandt and Bailey on the flanks. Just a year ago, the duo was discussed in some circles as a “next generation” replacement for <a href="https://www.sbnation.com/soccer/bundesliga/players/110495/arjen-robben">Arjen Robben</a> and <a href="https://www.sbnation.com/soccer/bundesliga/players/110243/franck-ribery">Franck Ribery</a> at Bayern, but it has been a <a href="https://www.thebarrelblog.com/single-post/2019/01/28/Boom-or-bust-Julian-Brandt-and-Leon-Bailey-hold-the-key-for-Bayer-Leverkusen">largely underwhelming year for the wingers</a>, which has had a trickle-down effect on the entire team’s performance. As for Robben and Ribery, the tandem has out-performed their younger counterparts this season despite suffering through various ailments. Bayern coach Niko Kovac hoped to have both players back in the lineup for the game against Die Werkself, but the veteran duo is not yet ready for action.<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Kovac?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Kovac</a>: "<a href="https://twitter.com/FranckRibery?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@FranckRibery</a> and Arjen <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Robben?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Robben</a> aren't quite ready yet.

@FCBayernEN: RT @Plettigoal: ❗️Talked to A. #Robben today! Regarding his training at #FCBayern he says: „I get a kick out of it and I want to stay fit. But my comeback at FCB is explicitly excluded.“ Is a comeback in another team imaginable? „You never know. I don’t want to say yes or no.“ @SPORT1i
