Already dealing with a long list of absentees, Bayern Munich have apparently been rocked by another injury.

According to TZ, Leon Goretzka will miss Saturday's Bundesliga game against FC Heidenheim.

The Munich-based publication reports that the German international has sustained a knock to his calf.

Goretzka joins a lengthy list of absentees that includes Manuel Neuer (calf), Dayot Upamecano (knee), Tarek Buchmann (shoulder), Alphonso Davies (knee), Hiroki Ito (foot), and Jamal Musiala (hamstring).

Bayern head into Saturday’s fixture six points clear of Bayer Leverkusen at the top of the Bundesliga table, with just five games remaining in the season.
