Leon Goretzka had to come off in the 40th minute of Bayern Munich's 2-1 win over Freiburg on Saturday. 

A scan has now revealed that the midfielder has suffered a muscle strain in his left hamstring. 

As a result, Goretzka will be sidelined for “a few days”, FC Bayern confirmed on Sunday. 

Goretzka is suspended for Bayern's upcoming game against Slovan Bratislava in the Champions League on Wednesday.
