BERLIN (Reuters) - Bayern Munich striker Ivan Perisic will be sidelined for several weeks after fracturing an ankle bone in Tuesday's training, coach Hansi Flick said.
The Croatian 31-year-old was injured during a challenge with team mate Alvaro Odriozola and had to be taken off the pitch in a golf cart.
"Ivan has an ankle bone fracture. That means it will take four weeks until it fully heals. After that there also be rehabilitative training," Flick said.Perisic, a 2018 World Cup finalist, joined Bayern in August from Inter Milan to provide attacking options. He has scored four goals so far in the Bundesliga.
Bayern are already struggling with a string of injuries to key players. But they have also reclaimed the Bundesliga lead last week and take on Hoffenheim in the German Cup third round on Wednesday.
