This time Choupo-Moting positive
The corona virus continues to rage at Bayern
The next corona case at FC Bayern: This time Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, who is already in quarantine, will test positive for the virus. The striker should still not be vaccinated. Serge Gnabry and Jamal Musiala have since opted for the spades.
Bayern Munich does not come to rest in the matter of Corona even after the (short) joy over the 2-1 (2-0) victory against Dynamo Kiev and thus the first group place in the Champions League: Now Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting was positive the virus tested. He is doing “well under the circumstances,” said the record champions.
The 32-year-old striker, who had previously been in quarantine as a contact person, remains in domestic isolation. Choupo-Moting is reportedly not vaccinated. After all, coach Julian Nagelsmann can play in the Bundesliga home game on Saturday (6.30 p.m. / Sky and in the live ticker on ntv.de.) probably plan against Arminia Bielefeld again with Niklas Süle and Josip Stanisic. The two professionals who tested positive for the corona virus returned to the training ground on Wednesday.
Gnabry and Musiala probably vaccinated
National player Süle completed an individual conditioning session with the ball together with Dayot Upamecano, who missed the Champions League game at Dynamo Kiev (2-1) due to a yellow card suspension. Stanisic did a few laps. The duo had found themselves in domestic isolation, but were able to free themselves at the beginning of the week. It remains to be seen when Joshua Kimmich, Serge Gnabry, Jamal Musiala and Michael Cuisance, who are currently in quarantine as contacts, will be available again.
Before the positive test by Choupo-Moting, the prospect of a positive vaccination certificate for national players Serge Gnabry and Jamal Musiala had increased Nagelsmann’s mood. “I can’t confirm that yet,” said the Bayern coach: “If that’s the case, I’ll be happy about it, then it’s a first step.” The “kicker” announced the spades for Gnabry and Musiala. “Bild” and “Sport Bild” also reported that Joshua Kimmich and Michael Cuisance should also consider vaccination.
