Ahead of the clash with Manchester United, Bayern Munich has confirmed an injury setback.

For Tuesday night's crucial Champions League tie at Old Trafford, Bayern Munich has confirmed the absence of former Arsenal winger Serge Gnabry.

Serge Gnabry, 28, sustained a muscle tendon injury in the left adductor area during Bayern's 5-1 defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday. Unfortunately, he won't be able to travel to Manchester for the upcoming match, as confirmed in a statement by Bayern: "Serge Gnabry, who had to come off after just five minutes in Frankfurt, will miss the upcoming games due to the injury."

Bayern's star attacking player, a Germany international, showcased their prowess with a 4-3 victory earlier this season. Despite this, let's acknowledge Bayern's depth, as they possess numerous goal-scoring talents.

Even though the Bundesliga champions have secured their spot in the last-16 by winning the group, the upcoming match holds significant importance for Manchester United. With a slim chance of qualifying for the knockout phase, this fixture becomes crucial for the English club.

To secure qualification, Ten Hag's team must defeat Bayern, while also depending on a draw between Copenhagen and Galatasaray in the other Group A match. Despite injuries affecting key players throughout the season, the underlying issues contributing to inconsistency cannot be ignored. Ten Hag faces the challenge of assembling a competitive lineup from a squad of inconsistent players to take on the German champions.
