Overview

• Kim limped off in the 69th minute at Hoffenheim with a calf problem, with reports differing on whether the left or right calf was affected.
• Bayern confirmed no structural injury following Munich examinations, with the club characterizing the situation as not severe.
• BILD reported the finding as a stress reaction rather than a muscle tear and said Kim completed a roughly 15‑minute on‑field rehab session.
• The defender worked with new rehab chief Benjamin Sommer on jogging and light passing, and his involvement on Friday likely hinges on joining parts of team training by Wednesday.
• Bayern’s back line remains stretched by other absences including Josip Stanisic, Alphonso Davies, Hiroki Ito and the recently sidelined Raphael Guerreiro.
