It has been confirmed that Bayern Munich will be able to welcome back several players for their trip to north London to face Arsenal in the first-leg of their UEFA Champions League quarter-final on Tuesday evening.
It has been confirmed that goalkeeper and club captain Manuel Neuer will be accompanied by key men such as Noussair Mazraoui, Aleksandar Pavlovic, Kingsley Coman and Leroy Sane in returning to the Bayern squad for the game at the Emirates Stadium.
The Bavarians do still remain without right-back duo Sacha Boey, who arrived from Galatasaray during the January transfer window, as well as Bouna Sarr.
Thomas Tuchel’s side are under major pressure with the former Chelsea and Borussia Dortmund coach departing the club at the end of this season.
They were knocked out early on in the DFB-Pokal by third-tier Saarbrucken, were hammered in the DFL-Supercup, had to overcome a first-leg deficit against Lazio in the Round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League and are way off Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga.
They have won the last 11 Bundesliga titles but are now 15 points behind Xabi Alonso’s Bayer Leverkusen with just 18 to play for after leading by two goals to nil at Heidenheim and eventually falling to a 3-2 defeat.
Therefore, the return of those aforementioned key men are a major boost for Bayern as they head to the Premier League leaders Arsenal this week.
