The 38-year-old shot-stopper has been diagnosed with a torn muscle fiber in his right calf

Bayern Munich has revealed that the injury sustained by their goalkeeper, Manuel Neuer, during yesterday's Champions League Round of 16 match against Bayer Leverkusen is more severe than initially feared. The 38-year-old shot-stopper has been diagnosed with a torn muscle fiber in his right calf, casting doubt on his immediate future.

The injury occurred in the second half, forcing Neuer to leave the pitch. He was replaced by Jonas Urbig, a 21-year-old goalkeeper who made his debut for Bayern's senior team. Surprisingly, the injury happened during a moment of celebration. According to head coach Vincent Kompany, Neuer likely sustained the damage while enthusiastically celebrating a goal by Jamal Musiala, jumping and running in excitement.

While the exact recovery timeline remains unclear, initial reports suggest that Neuer could miss at least 3-4 matches, including the crucial second leg against Bayer Leverkusen next week.
