Bayern Munich's Luis Diaz sustained a thigh muscle injury during the UEFA Champions League match against Arsenal, which will sideline him for several games, including crucial Bundesliga fixtures. The 29-year-old attacking midfielder suffered a minor muscle fibre tear in his left hamstring during the Wednesday night game. Diaz did not start the match due to previous muscular issues but came on as a substitute in the 68th minute but was substituted again late in the game.
Coach Vincent Kompany expressed hope that the injuries were not severe, hoping they would not persist for too long, possibly less than a week. Bayern, currently topping the table on goal difference, faces Freiburg, Borussia Dortmund, and Atlético Madrid in upcoming matches, with Díaz expected to miss all of them.
