Manuel Neuer set to be sidelined for up to two months

Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer is expected to miss up to two months of action after tearing a partial tendon in his right foot during Saturday's 2-1 Bundesliga win over Mainz, according to BILD. The experienced 40-year-old was involved in the team's victory, but the injury has put him on the sidelines for an unspecified period.

This setback is a blow for Vincent Kompany's side, who will now need to find alternative goalkeepers to fill in while Neuer recovers. Bayern Munich has not yet disclosed when Neuer will return, leaving the timing of his availability for the club's next games uncertain. The team expressed their support for Neuer, wishing him a speedy recovery as he begins his rehabilitation process.
