Even before the first medical examinations, Bayern Munich was not optimistic. Barely an hour after the end of the match against Cologne (2-0), Saturday April 13, the Bavarian club announced through its sporting director, Christoph Freund, that it feared an absence of “Several weeks” by Kingsley Coman. The French international stopped short in the opposing area, hit in the thigh, and came off with an injury in the 50th minute, helped by two members of the medical staff.
This is not a priori a relapse of his knee ligament injury which caused him to miss almost two months of competition between January and March. In any case, there is concern one month before Didier Deschamps’ list for Euro 2024 (scheduled for May 16). “He still has to do some tests, but it doesn’t look so good. We hope it won’t be counted in months, developed Christoph Freund. We will see what the exact examination gives and what comes out of it, but we must expect that in the coming weeks it will not be available.”. The race against time is already underway for those who took part in Euro 2021 and the 2022 World Cup. The Euro begins on June 14.
