Bayern Munich's Alphonso Davies, Dayot Upamecano Face Lengthy Injuries

Bayern Munich is facing a significant setback as star defender Alphonso Davies has been diagnosed with a torn ACL in his right knee, sustained during international duty with Canada. This injury will sideline him for at least six months, ruling him out for the remainder of the season, including critical Champions League matches. Alongside Davies, central defender Dayot Upamecano is also out for several weeks due to loose cartilage in his knee, further complicating Bayern's defensive options. Bayern's sporting director Max Eberl acknowledged the heavy toll of these injuries, emphasizing the importance of both players to the team's structure. Despite these challenges, Bayern leads the Bundesliga and is preparing for a quarter-final clash against Inter Milan in the Champions League. The club is optimistic about the recovery of both players as they support their rehabilitation efforts.
