Kimmich: Neuer's injury is a painful blow for us, his exit indicates the seriousness of the injury

Joshua Kimmich, a player for Bayern Munich, spoke about the injury suffered by Manuel Neuer during the match against 1.FSV Mainz 05 in the Bundesliga, which forced him to leave the pitch before the end of the first half.

Manuel Neuer suffered pain in his right foot following a challenge in the penalty area, forcing him to leave the match in the 45th minute. Goalkeeper Jonas Oerbig came on in his place.

Joshua Kimmich, in statements to "Sky Sport", spoke about the condition of the team's captain: "I think he will undergo a medical examination this evening, it is very painful for us, especially since we are facing another absence."

He added: "It didn't seem like he would be able to return to training after one week, Neuer never shows the extent of the pain he feels, and when he has to go out, unfortunately, it is likely that the injury is serious."
