Surprise in the Classic: Guerreiro Returns to Squad While Speedster Gnabry Misses Out

In a surprising development, Raphael Guerreiro has been included in Bayern Munich’s squad for the crucial match against Borussia Dortmund on Saturday at 18:30. Initially, there were doubts about his participation due to muscular issues that saw him training individually during the international break.
In contrast, Serge Gnabry will miss the match due to similar muscular problems related to his adductors. Bayern’s coach, Vincent Kompany, provided an update on Alphonso Davies, who continues to recover. Kompany noted that the medical team is making progress, and while he had hoped for Davies to return earlier, it now seems that his comeback may be possible by December.
