Bayern Confirm Raphaël Guerreiro Hamstring Tear, Out For PSG Semi-Final First Leg

The setback narrows Vincent Kompany’s options for the semi-final.

Overview

  • Bayern said medical tests found a small muscle-fiber tear in the back of Guerreiro’s left thigh after the 4-3 win at Mainz.
  • The club ruled the 32-year-old out of the Champions League semi-final first leg against Paris Saint-Germain.
  • Bayern did not give a return date, and this type of injury often needs several weeks of recovery depending on progress.
  • His absence cuts into Bayern’s flexibility because he has filled both full-back and midfield roles since joining in 2023.
  • Guerreiro’s contract runs out on June 30, so the injury clouds the closing weeks of his Bayern tenure.
