Bayern Munich winger Serge Gnabry will miss his side’s Champions League trip to Manchester United on Tuesday.
The former Arsenal man sustained a thigh strain in his side’s humiliating 5-1 defeat to Frankfurt on Saturday.
Though the Germans have already qualified for the knockout stages of the Champions League, Thomas Tuchel is now expected to play a strengthened side following their loss to Frankfurt.

But the Bundesliga giants will be without Gnabry following the thigh issue he sustained on Saturday.
Gnabry’s been limited to just three starts this season, and Leroy Sane and Kingsley Coman are likely to start in his absence.
United collapsed to a shock 3-0 defeat to Bournemouth on Saturday and the pressure is back on Erik ten Hag after a brief reprieve in recent weeks.
