In an official press release, Bayern Munich have revealed that Dayot Upamecano (26) will miss several weeks of action after sustaining a knee injury. 

The centre-back played the whole 120 minutes as France overcame Croatia in the quarter-final of the UEFA Nations League at the Stade de France on Sunday night. He even netted the winning spot-kick to seal France’s progression to the final four, which will take place in the summer. 

However, Upamecano has now suffered a setback. Upon his return from international duty, it has been revealed that he is set for a period on the sidelines. Bayern Munich have confirmed that the centre-back has loose joints in his left knee, which will require treatment and a period of recovery. 

Bayern Munich have not further specificed his period of absence, however, it can assumed that his participation in the UEFA Champions League quarter-final against Inter Milan is in doubt.
