Bayern Munich defender Mats Hummels is set to miss Wednesday’s UEFA Champions League quarter-final first leg against Real Madrid with an ankle injury.
The Germany international centre-back had to leave Bayern training early on Sunday. The extent of the injury is not yet known, and the 28-year-old has been ruled out at least the next two matches.
Sehr traurig darüber mindestens die nächste Woche auszufallen...

Very sad about missing at least the next two games...
Hummels came off the bench in the 4-1 Klassiker victory over former club Borussia Dortmund on Saturday, but it is now expected that Javi Martinez will partner Jerome Boateng, who himself has just returned from a long injury lay-off, against Madrid in Munich.
