FC Bayern Munich expects Thomas Müller to play in the top Bundesliga game against SC Freiburg on Sunday (7:30 p.m. / DAZN).
“His back muscles tightened a bit in his calf, it’s nothing bad, nothing dramatic and no risk for the weekend,” coach Julian Nagelsmann gave the all-clear.
Goalscorer Müller was substituted early in the 4-2 (4-0) win in the Champions League at Viktoria Pilsen (28th). In the early round of 16, the veteran made his comeback after surviving corona disease.
Nagelsmann had to leave it open whether captain Manuel Neuer can also play against Freiburg. “In terms of pain, it was a little better today,” said the trainer at “DAZN” about the goalkeeper with his shoulder injury.
