Luis Díaz's teammate will be unable to play until next year: Bayern Munich confirms the unfortunate news

Bayern Munich has confirmed that Moroccan winger Ismael Saibari suffered a syndesmosis ligament rupture in his right ankle, requiring surgery that was reported as successful. The club stated that Saibari will be sidelined for approximately three months, meaning he will miss the remainder of the current season and is expected to return in February 2027. This injury adds to the team's existing absences, including Colombian forward Luis Diaz, who is nearing the end of his recovery from a hamstring strain, and Serge Gnabry, who is out for four to six weeks due to an hamstring issue. Despite these setbacks, Bayern Munich received positive news regarding the availability of goalkeeper Manuel Neuer and midfielder Michael Olise, both of whom were included in the squad for their upcoming UEFA Champions League match against Atletico Madrid.

Rumors are circulating about Luis Díaz's return date: the news is causing a stir in Colombia and is a concern for Lorenzo

Bayern Munich has updated the injury status of Colombian forward Luis Diaz, confirming he suffered a minor muscle tear in his left hamstring during a Champions League match against Arsenal. While recent footage showed Diaz resuming individual ball training, sports director Max Eberl stated that Diaz will not return to full team training until after the upcoming international break. Consequently, Diaz is effectively ruled out for the November FIFA window matches, forcing Colombia head coach Nestor Lorenzo to seek alternative options for his squad. The article notes that this absence comes amid a broader wave of injuries at Bayern Munich, which also includes teammate Jamal Musiala who is expected to return to group training before Diaz.
