Kickers: Bayern training ground is sparse, only 6 players are available in 4 offensive positions

Hupu, August 19th, Bayern Munich is preparing for the opening match of the Bundesliga, but they are now training less than usual on the training ground. Even other members of Bayern Munich's roster have realized that their roster was not large before the start of the Bundesliga. When both Harry Kane and Manuel Neuer both publicly announced their desire for new players to join ("I feel like something else will happen"), this could be seen as a clear signal to sports director Max Eber and sports director Christoph Freinde.

Bayern Munich still has some work to do, and currently only six players can play in four offensive positions: Serge Gnabry, Michael Oris, Leonard Carr, Jonah Cousy Asare, Louis Dias and Kane. Kane also missed team training on Monday and Tuesday due to "workload management". As Bayern Munich Club said, the reason is "workload management". Right back Conrad Lemmer faces the same situation.

Alexander Pavlovic resumed some of his team's training on Monday after a fractured orbital and underwent surgery. The local player also wore a mask on Tuesday to participate in several training events and he is likely to be considered for the Bundesliga debut against RB Leipzig.

In the absence of Pavlovic, Kompani may rely on Joshua Kimmich and Leon Gretzka, the experienced two-star partners, to defend, and new player Tom Bischov also showed his value and performed well. He will be the challenger in the trio this season, but a healthy Pavlovic is likely to have a better advantage than Gretzka.
