Jerome Boateng to miss Bayern's DFB-Pokal game against Schalke 04
Bayern München will reportedly be without Jerome Boateng for their DFB-Pokal clash with Schalke 04.
Jerome Boateng will not be available when Bayern München face Schalke 04 at Veltins-Arena in the DFB-Pokal on Tuesday, according to a report from Bild.
Bayern coach Hansi Flick revealed on Monday that the Boateng has been struggling with a stomach bug, and the centre-back won't recover in time for Tuesday's game, as per the report.
With Boateng's absence, Joshua Kimmich is likely to drop back into the back four to play alongside David Alaba in central defence.
Bayern will also have to manage without Lucas Hernandez, who has been ruled out with a slight tendon problem.
