Munich (AP) - FC Bayern Munich can again fall back on Thomas Müller and Serge Gnabry in the Bundesliga.
According to coach Hansi Flick, Müller after a coronavirus infection and Gnabry after a torn muscle are back in the German champions' squad against 1. FC Köln on Saturday (3.30 p.m. / Sky)
“I expect the team to be very willing to win the game.
We want to build on and continue like we did against Lazio, ”said Flick on Friday.
In the Champions League, Munich won the first leg of the first leg 4-1 in Rome.
In the Bundesliga, the league leaders lost points after winning the Club World Cup against Arminia Bielefeld (3: 3) and Eintracht Frankfurt (1: 2).
How Flick plans in the 100th duel with Cologne in professional football with Gnabry and Müller, he did not reveal.
The return of manager Müller should make itself felt both on and off the pitch.
"Thomas is an exceptional player," said Flick and praised the attitude, professionalism and looseness of the ex-international.
«He embodies a lot of things that you simply need in the team.
We are happy that he is back. "
