Bayern Munich’s Joshua Kimmich and Thomas Mueller have tested positive for Covid-19 just a week before heading to Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga. The German champions confirmed the news late on Saturday afternoon, declaring that both players have “no symptoms” and are currently in home isolation.
Both will miss the team’s upcoming Champions League game against Viktoria Pilsen, but may still be able to play in Saturday’s game against Dortmund.
They took part in Bayern’s dominant 4-0 home win over Bayer Leverkusen on Friday night.
Bayern on Friday welcomed captain Manuel Neuer and midfielder Leon Goretzka, who had been in Covid isolation for a week after testing positive while on duty in Germany.
Kimmich and Mueller were also in the Nations League camp in Germany.

Kimmich, who was previously unvaccinated due to “fears and concerns” with the vaccine, was vaccinated in early 2022.
