Aleksandar Pavlovic returned to training on Monday but the 20-year-old midfielder is not ready to return this week.
Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany has revealed that Aleksandar Pavlovic returned to training on Monday, but he has not set a timeframe for the 20-year-old midfielder’s return, according to Sky Germany.
Pavlovic suffered a serious collarbone injury during a DFB-Pokal tie against Stuttgart on October 19 and the 19-year-old midfielder returned to training on Monday, but is not fully fit and will not be back in action anytime soon, the Bavarians boss has confirmed.
‘I can’t tell yet,’ Kompany said of Pavlovic’s return. ‘We don’t expect him to be back before January, but it’s very early now. The medical team and Pavlov are working well together, but it’s important not to put too much pressure on him. He should be back 100 per cent, but he won’t be back this week. ‘
Commenting on the new Champions League format and his side’s position in the middle of the table with six points from four games, Kompany said:
“There are a lot of teams we haven’t seen and won’t see until February. The format is interesting. But it’s a bit difficult to look ยูฟ่าเบท at the table. Some have four very difficult games, some have easier ones.
“Our goal is top 1, hopefully we’ll get there. For now, it’s enough for me to say that we want to win against PSG tomorrow.”
