FC Bayern have to do without Leon Goretzka and Javi Martínez for several weeks.
Both professionals have tested positive for the corona virus and are in quarantine at home.
Before the game against TSG Hoffenheim (Saturday 3.30 p.m., Sky and in the WELT live ticker), the personnel worries for coach Hansi Flick are increasing.
“Javi and Leon have both tested positive and are in quarantine.
They will not be available to us in the next few weeks.
Everything has been clarified with the health department.
It's a shame that it hit both of them, ”said Flick.
According to information, both professionals should be symptom-free.
Martínez is said to have caught it in front of national player Goretzka.
“Corona is like football.
A single contact is enough to turn everything upside down, ”said Goretzka.
Since the Bayern professionals are tested daily for the virus, those responsible assume that there are no further cases in the Munich squad.

Because of the quarantine, Martínez and Goretzka will probably also be out of the Club World Cup, which Bayern will start on February 8 in Qatar.
In addition to the two, Flick has to do without substitute goalkeepers Alexander Nübel and Corentin Tolisso against Hoffenheim, who defeated Bayern 4-1 in the first half of the season.
Nübel sustained an ankle ligament injury during training on Thursday.
According to Flick, the 24-year-old is "likely to be out for three to four weeks".
Tolisso is spared after muscular problems, as is Tanguy Nianzou, who is in training.
