Bayern Munich take on Inter Milan in the Champions League on Wednesday.
And there are a number of key players missing for the Bavarians ahead of the quarterfinal second leg clash.
Jamal Musiala was out against Inter for last week's Champions League quarterfinal first leg. And he'll miss the second leg as well.
Then, injuries to all of Alphonso Davies, Dayot Upamecano, and Hiroki Ito have decimated the Bavarians' defense.
Meanwhile, Harry Kane and Kim Min-Jae are far from their best.

On the other hand, one player who certainly isn't struggling for form is forward Serge Gnabry.

The 29-year-old came off the bench for Bayern in Saturday's 2-2 Bundesliga draw with Borussia Dortmund.
Gnabry almost immediately made an impact. He played a crucial role in Bayern's first goal.
Then it was the former Arsenal and Hoffenheim forward who scored the Bavarians' second.
Therefore, Tuttosport suggest, Bayern coach Vincent Kompany may find it hard to leave Gnabry out against Inter.
In the meantime, it was Leroy Sane who started last week's first leg against Inter. And then, winger Kingsley Coman is also back to fitness for Bayern.

First few pictures of Xabi Alonso in a training session with Madrid players

Xabi Alonso era has started as a manager of one of the greatest teams in football, i.e. Real Madrid. By Ravi Kumar Jha Published on June 10, 2025, 09:38 IST Xabi Alonso era has started as a manager of one of the greatest teams in football, i.e. Real Madrid. He was seen conducting training session for the first time and the photos say how dedicated he is from the first day to manage this world class team. A new chapter has officially begun at the Santiago Bernabéu as Xabi Alonso takes charge of Real Madrid — not as a player this time, but as the manager of one of the most storied clubs in football history. The former midfield maestro, known for his intelligence and composure on the pitch, was seen conducting his very first training session with Los Blancos, marking the start of a highly anticipated managerial era. Photos from the session quickly made waves across social media, capturing Alonso's intense focus and hands-on approach. Dressed in Real Madrid gear and exuding calm authority, the Spanish tactician appeared fully locked in — analyzing every movement, giving tactical instructions, and engaging with players individually. His passion, professionalism, and attention to detail were evident from the get-go. Alonso, who enjoyed immense success at Madrid as a player, now returns with a mission to uphold and enhance the club's legacy. After an impressive spell with Bayer Leverkusen, where he transformed the team into Bundesliga champions, fans and pundits alike are eager to see how his tactical brilliance and winning mentality will shape Real Madrid in the seasons to come.

Why Arne Slot rejected Tottenham as Liverpool rival closes in on Thomas Frank

Tottenham is in the process of appointing a new manager after parting ways with Ange Postecoglou last week, and Brentford's Thomas Frank is the club's No.1 choice to take over. Spurs are confident that a deal will be wrapped up this week after approaching Brentford for Frank, who has a $13.5 million release clause in his contract at the Gtech Community Stadium. Advertisement But had Tottenham managed to convince Arne Slot to move to North London two years ago, the club might not have found itself looking for a new manager at all considering how well the Dutchman has settled in on Merseyside. Spurs talked to Slot in 2023, when the club was looking for a replacement for Antonio Conte, but he turned the job down in favor of remaining at Feyenoord for another season.

Advertisement 'The decisive factor was playing the Champions League,' Slot said. 'The fantastic work with the staff and the players, the fact that I'm having a great time privately and being able to build on the past two seasons. 'I didn't know what would happen [with Tottenham]. I weighed everything up, including whether the people who work with me would want to come with me." However, addressing Spurs' interest in him again when speaking earlier this year, Slot said that his decision to snub the job was actually heavily influenced by his family. "Not going to Spurs was 99 per cent a family decision," Slot said. "I even told my kids they could easily visit me in London during the school holidays. My daughter said that during the school holidays, she wanted to spend time with her friends.

At Spurs and another club — I won't mention the name myself — I had to give a presentation, explain my tactical approach, and compete against other coaches." Advertisement Slot added: "When Liverpool came along last season, everything was completely different. Nothing surpasses Liverpool. I did tell my agent, Rafaella Pimenta, that I wanted to know whether I was the only candidate. If that hadn't been the case, I don't know if I would have gone through with it. "Liverpool acted completely differently. Sporting director Richard Hughes came to visit me and I was surprised by how much he already knew about me. "A few months earlier, (technical director) Julian Ward had called me. I knew him from the time when he was responsible for Liverpool's loaned players. "He told me he was doing a tour around Europe, visiting clubs. He asked if he could come and watch me. Later, I realized that his visit served a different purpose. It shows how meticulous Liverpool is in their approach."

Jason Kelce Reveals the Truth on Major Personal Decision

Jason Kelce Reveals the Truth on Major Personal Decision originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Jason Kelce has been doing a lot since he retired from the Philadelphia Eagles in 2024. Since then, the Super Bowl-winning center has gotten himself a deal with ESPN as a football analyst, which also gave birth to his own talk show on the esteemed sports network, "They Call It Late Night With Jason Kelce." Advertisement On top of that, the 37-year-old also runs a very successful podcast with his brother, Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs, entitled "New Heights." Kelce has also ventured into multiple businesses. Apart from being a part-owner of Cincinnati, Ohio-based alcoholic beverage company Garage Beer, the NFL icon also decided to invest in his passion for golf. In May, Kelce was officially announced as a part-owner of the Sullivan County Golf Club in Liberty, New York. The seven-time Pro Bowl center joined actor Bill Murray and entrepreneur Mike Madden, the son of NFL legend Mike Madden, among others, as part of the golf club's high-profile ownership group. In a recent interview, Kelce opened up about his major personal decision to invest in Sullivan County. According to the former Eagles star, it was renowned golf writer and editor Tom Coyne who paved the way for him. Advertisement "So Tom and I played golf and did a podcast that he has," Kelce said, via kelcebrothers on Instagram. "And we just kind of got to know each other through that. "And, you know, I've been getting more involved with golf. I'm doing some stuff with my nonprofit, Underdog ... But (I've) been working with Tom and doing some things on that front. Jason Kelce on the ESPN postseason countdown set.© Kirby Lee-Imagn Images "And then he all of a sudden tells me, 'Hey, do you want to go play a hoopie with Bill Murray?' I'm like, '(Expletive) Yeah, I want to go play a hoopie with Bill Murray.' And that's when we kind of got to talking. "It sounded like this nine-hole course up in the Catskills in Sullivan County was going to be pretty killer. ... From there, we kind of came together, and now we've got a golf course." Advertisement While it was not disclosed how much Kelce invested in this new business venture, there's no denying that purchasing a stake in a golf course had to burn a hole in his pockets. However, as Kelce said during the announcement, his relationship with the sport of golf has grown over the past few years, and he came to the conclusion that it was due time to make "a long-term commitment" by putting his money where his mouth is.
