Bayern Munich right-back Sacha Boey will be sidelined for weeks after suffering a “meniscus tear in his left knee,” the German football giants said on Monday.
“Sacha Boey will be out of action for Bayern for several weeks after the right-back suffered a meniscus tear in his left knee in training on Sunday, as confirmed following examination by the club’s medical department,” Bayern Munich said in a statement.
“The 24-year-old has already undergone a successful operation,” the club added.
Boey will miss the German club’s UEFA Champions League opener against GNK Dinamo Zagreb on Tuesday at Munich’s Allianz Arena.
