Bayern Munich will have to manage without 17-year-old midfielder Maycon Cardozo until further notice.

The youngster suffered a thigh muscle injury while playing for the club’s second team in a 1-0 win over DJK Vilzing on Monday.

Cardozo has featured twice for Bayern's first team this season and made his senior debut as a substitute in a 4-1 victory over Borussia Mönchengladbach last month.

A dual citizen of Brazil and Portugal, Cardozo usually plays on the left or right wing.
