Bayern referred to “the stability of the German international, who immediately entered health isolation at his home.”
This comes after coach Hans Flick indicated that Gnabry did not participate in the last training session, due to his sore throat.
On the 30th of March, Bayern Munich announced the injury of its striker Robert Lewandowski and his 4-week absence from the team.
This made it clear that Lewandowski was unable to participate in the two matches between Paris Saint-Germain in the quarter-finals of the Champions League on April 7 and 13, which is considered a painful blow to the world champion.
