Josip Stanisic will face a spell on the sidelines after sustaining an injury in Bayern Munich’s 3-1 Champions League win over Chelsea on Wednesday evening.
Following medical examinations, the German champions confirmed on Thursday that the full-back has suffered a partial tear of the medial collateral ligament in his right knee.
As a result, Stanisic will be sidelined until further notice.
Stanisic said he felt fine after the match, but the injury has proven more serious than he initially believed.
With Stanisic unavailable, Sacha Boey is expected to start when Bayern face Hoffenheim at the weekend.
