"Sven Ulreich suffered a torn muscle bundle in his right adductor during the Bundesliga away game on Saturday at Bayer Leverkusen. Ulreich will undergo a scan today to determine the extent of the injury. Manuel Neuer's comeback is planned after the international break. A decision regarding Jonas Urbig will be made after further tests."
"Barring a return to action for Neuer or Urbig, either Jannis Bärtl (19) or Leonard Prescott (16) would have to start against Atalanta on Wednesday in the Champions League. It is conceivable that Urbig could be ready if his concussion symptoms have improved."
Bayern Munich confronts an unprecedented goalkeeper shortage with all four senior keepers sidelined by injuries. Manuel Neuer deals with a calf issue, Jonas Urbig suffered a concussion, Leon Klanac has a muscular injury, and Sven Ulreich sustained a torn muscle bundle in his right adductor during Saturday's 1-1 draw with Bayer Leverkusen. Ulreich is expected to miss six weeks. Neuer's return is planned after the international break, while Urbig's availability depends on concussion symptom improvement. The club may need to deploy youth goalkeepers Jannis Bärtl (19) or Leonard Prescott (16) for Wednesday's Champions League match against Atalanta.
