Manuel Neuer (Bayern Munich)
November 2025
Bayern’s preparation for a key domestic and European run has been disrupted as Manuel Neuer battles a gastrointestinal infection and Serge Gnabry struggles with lingering problems from Germany duty, leaving both doubtful for Freiburg and potentially the critical Champions League meeting with Arsenal. Kompany confirmed Neuer has missed training and Gnabry is unlikely to feature, putting added pressure on Bayern’s depth. The medical staff will decide next steps as Bayern weigh whether to risk players short of full fitness or trust reserves for two high-stakes fixtures in quick succession.
