Bayern said medical exams confirmed a minor left hamstring tear, and the 29-year-old forward will be out for the foreseeable future.
- On Thursday, Bayern Munich confirmed that forward Luis Diaz will be out for the "foreseeable future" after suffering a minor muscle tear in his left hamstring during Wednesday's 2-2 Champions League draw against Arsenal.
- Coach Vincent Kompany reported that Diaz had "not trained to 100 percent" before the match; the 29-year-old entered the game in the 68th minute and was forced off in stoppage time at the Allianz Arena.
- Medical examinations confirmed the hamstring tear, and German media reports suggest Diaz will be out for four to six weeks. Bayern stated, "The 29-year-old forward will therefore be sidelined for the time being."
