A new setback for Bayern Munich in the run-up to the diptych in the quarterfinals of the Champions League against Paris Saint-Germain: Serge Gnabry has tested positive for the corona virus and must pass both games against the French, reports der Rekordmeister on his website. Gnabry is in good health and has gone into self-isolation.

The corona infection of Gnabry is a line through the account of Hansi Flick, who saw the 25-year-old attacker as a replacement for Robert Lewandowski according to German media. The club top scorer of Bayern suffered a knee injury with the national team of Poland last week and is expected to be out for another three weeks. Flick may choose Maxim Choupo-Moting in the striker, who also played there against RB Leipzig (0-1 victory) on Saturday. Moving number ten Thomas Müller to the point of the attack is also an option.

Bayern must also miss Marc Roca, who sustained an injury during training on Sunday. Paris Saint-Germain also suffers from the corona virus. On the side of the Parisians, Marco Verratti and Alessandro Florenzi are absent due to a positive pcr test. Furthermore, Leandro Paredes has been suspended for the meeting with Bayern, which starts on Wednesday at 9 p.m.
