Bayern Munich will be without Robert Lewandowski for the next four weeks due to sprained ligaments in his right knee.
Robert Lewandowski will miss both Champions League quarter-final clashes with Paris Saint-Germain after Bayern Munich confirmed he is to be sidelined for a month with a knee injury.
Lewandowski sustained damage to his right knee during Poland’s 3-0 World Cup qualifying win over Andorra on Sunday, a game in which he scored twice.
Poland subsequently confirmed he was to play no part in the upcoming clash with England and that he was due to return to Bayern for treatment.
It was initially thought the 32-year-old would only be absent for up to 10 days, however, Bayern confirmed on Tuesday that the issue is slightly more serious than first suspected.
A statement revealed Lewandowski is now expected to be out for most of April.
It read: “Robert Lewandowski has strained a ligament in his right knee. The FC Bayern striker will be out for around four weeks.
“After Poland’s 3-0 win over Andorra, Lewandowski returned early to Munich, where a diagnosis was made by the German record champions’ medical team.”
