"Bayern Munich winger Luis Díaz has been banned for three games by UEFA following his red card against Paris Saint-Germain earlier this month. UEFA determined that Díaz had committed " serious rough play" with his tackle on Paris Saint-Germain's Achraf Hakimi in first-half stoppage time of Bayern's 2-1 Champions League win at the Parc des Princes. Díaz had a particularly eventful outing in Paris, having scored both Bayern goals in the first half before he was sent off. The Colombia international will now miss Bayern's trip to Arsenal on Wednesday as well as home meetings with Sporting CP (Dec. 9) and Union Saint-Gilloise (Jan. 21)."
"Bayern Munich head coach Vincent Kompany also has a fitness concern over Serge Gnabry and expects to be without the forward for Saturday's Bundesliga clash with Freiburg. Gnabry played the full 90 minutes in Germany's 6-0 rout of Slovakia as they secured their World Cup place for next summer, but has reported back to training with his club with a muscular injury. "Serge returned from international duty and still felt a twinge," Kompany said Friday. "We'll see, he probably won't be involved against Freiburg, we're hoping for the game after that.""
Luis Díaz received a three-match UEFA suspension for "serious rough play" after his tackle on Achraf Hakimi that produced a red card late in Bayern's 2-1 Champions League win at the Parc des Princes. Díaz scored both Bayern goals in the first half before being dismissed and will miss the trip to Arsenal plus home games against Sporting CP and Union Saint-Gilloise. Díaz has 11 goals and seven assists in 17 appearances since joining from Liverpool and has been integral to Bayern's record start to the season. Vincent Kompany reported a muscular twinge for Serge Gnabry, making Gnabry unlikely for the Freiburg match.
