Stanisic started Bayern's first game of the season - a 4-0 win over Ulm in the DFB-Pokal - before suffering the injury that has kept him out of action ever since.

He spent last season on loan at Bayer Leverkusen, with whom he won the German championship.

He signed a new long-term contract with the Bavarians after the end of last season, tying him to the club until 2029.
