Bayern Munich midfielder Joshua Kimmich is expected to make a full recovery from a hamstring injury sustained in the Champions League final, according to his manager Julian Nagelsmann.
The German international was forced off during the 2-1 loss to Paris Saint-Germain in May after being fouled by Marco Verratti. He has since undergone surgery on the issue and is now recovering at home with his family.
Nagelsmann said that Kimmich had made "good progress" since undergoing surgery and that he would be back in training soon. The coach added that the midfielder's fitness levels were above what was expected and that they would continue to monitor his progress closely.
Kimmich has been a key player for Bayern Munich this season,Serie A Observation making 36 appearances in all competitions and contributing with six goals and seven assists. His absence could have a significant impact on the team's chances of winning another Champions League title, but Nagelsmann remains optimistic about the midfielder's recovery and believes he will be ready when the team returns to action later this year.
