Bayern Munich has confirmed that two of their crucial players, Alphonso Davies and Dayot Upamecano, will be sidelined due to injuries. This development may provide a significant advantage to Simone Inzaghi and Inter Milan as they prepare for the upcoming Champions League quarter-finals.

Bayern’s Defensive Woes Ahead of Inter Clash

The German club announced that Alphonso Davies has suffered a severe anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury during a recent international match. This unfortunate incident will keep him out of action for the remainder of the current season and a substantial part of the next one.

Additionally, Dayot Upamecano has sustained a knee injury, though less severe than Davies’. Nevertheless, he is expected to miss several weeks of play, likely ruling him out for both legs of the quarter-final tie against Inter.

Reports suggest that Raphael Guerreiro is the probable replacement for Davies at left-back, while either Eric Dier or Hiroki Ito may step in for Upamecano in the central defense.

The first leg of the Champions League quarter-final between Inter Milan and Bayern Munich is scheduled for April 8 at the Allianz Arena. The return leg will take place at San Siro on April 16, where Inter will look to capitalize on Bayern’s defensive challenges.
