Bayern’s Pavlović out after eye‑socket fracture amid pre‑season buildup
21‑year‑old midfielder Aleksandar Pavlović has sustained an eye‑socket fracture during training, prompting immediate surgery.
Bayern Munich confirmed today that Pavlović will be sidelined following successful surgery, though no recovery timeline was given. His absence compounds Bayern’s injury troubles, which already include Jamal Musiala (fibula) and Alphonso Davies (ACL)
“Pavlović’s injury adds further strain to our pre-season preparation.”
