Bayern München winger Kingsley Coman will be out for up to two weeks after undergoing minor heart surgery on Thursday.




"Kingsley Coman underwent surgery yesterday," said Bayern coach Julian Nagelsmann ahead of Saturday's Bundesliga encounter with VfL Bochum.

"His heartbeat rhythm had a slight disturbance with a minor added beat. At times he had a slight shortage of breath. That's why we opted for long-term ECG monitoring and went ahead with this procedure.

"He will be doing cardio training again on Tuesday and won't be out of action for any more than one and a half to two weeks."

In addition to Coman, Bayern will be without Corentin Tolisso for tomorrow's game, with the French midfielder struggling with calf problems.
