"While there has not been an exact diagnosis, Bild's Heiko Niedderer reported that Urbig would be sidelined for around 8 to 10 days with his head injury. This would rule him out of the Bundesliga game against Bayer Leverkusen this weekend, and most likely also the second leg against Atalanta next week."
"With captain and starting goalkeeper Manuel Neuer also sidelined with a calf injury, Sven Ulreich is set to start in goal for at least the next two games. Ulreich has been Bayern's third goalkeeper since Urbig's arrival. His most recent official game for Bayern was a 5-0 win against Werder Bremen in 2024."
Bayern Munich's 6-1 Champions League victory over Atalanta was overshadowed by injuries to key players. Goalkeeper Jonas Urbig sustained a head injury in the final seconds and required medical assistance leaving the pitch before being hospitalized. Reports indicate he will miss approximately 8-10 days of action, ruling him out of the upcoming Bundesliga match against Bayer Leverkusen and likely the Champions League second leg against Atalanta. With captain and starting goalkeeper Manuel Neuer also sidelined by a calf injury, third-choice goalkeeper Sven Ulreich will start the next two matches. Ulreich's recent appearances include a 5-0 Bundesliga win against Werder Bremen in 2024 and a clean sheet in a friendly against Red Bull Salzburg.
