(The Guardian) Bundesliga news: Bayern Munich manager Julian Nagelsmann has revealed Alphonso Davies has stopped training due to a mild inflammation of the heart.
The Canadian international has been absent of late after he tested positive for Covid-19 earlier in the month. After conducting medical checks on Thursday a mild sign of myocarditis was detected.
“Yesterday, during our follow-up examination that we do with every player that has had Covid-19, we detected signs of mild myocarditis, [an inflammation of the heart muscle],” he said. “He has stopped training for now, so he won’t be available to us for the next weeks.
“This myocarditis isn’t too dramatic based on the ultrasound, but more simply signs of an inflammation. Nevertheless, it needs to heal and that will no doubt take some time.”
