Bayern Munich has confirmed that Lennart Karl, an 18-year-old attacking midfielder, will miss the second leg of their UEFA Champions League quarterfinal against Real Madrid due to a muscle fibre tear in his hamstring. The injury, diagnosed by the club's medical team, sidelines Karl for the foreseeable future. Although this is a setback for Bayern, it is somewhat mitigated by the fact that Karl did not participate in the first leg, which Bayern won 2-1. The Bavarian club is still considered the favorite to advance, with key players like Joshua Kimmich, Aleksandar Pavlovic, and Serge Gnabry expected to fill the midfield roles. Real Madrid, needing to overcome the deficit, will face a challenging match ahead.
