According to a report from Tz journalists Mano Bonke, Philipp Kessler, and Hanna Raif (as captured by @iMiaSanMia), Josip Stanišić suffered an injury scare after absorbing a hard tackle from teammate Jonathan Tah: Josip Stanišić got injured in today's training following a tackle by Jonathan Tah. Stanišić felt pain in his left knee and left the training pitch. The reporters would later check back in with an update on Stanišić indicating that whatever injury he suffered was not serious: Update: It is said that Stanišic did not suffer a serious injury following today's training incident.

According to Fabrizio Romano (via @iMiaSanMia), Juve were in the market for a right-back, but balked at Bayern's price tag of €50 million for the Croatian International. Bayern also counter-offered Sacha Boey, but Juventus was not interested. Per the report, the 25-year old Stanišić will remain a target for Juventus going forward. His contract with the German Rekordmeister runs until the Summer of 2029. Unless something changes drastically with his performance, Bayern will likely not lower their asking price in the near future.

FC Bayern will be without Jonas Urbig for the time being . The goalkeeper suffered a torn adductor muscle fiber during training with the German record champions, according to an examination by FC Bayern's medical department. Urbig's playing time has been limited - as expected. However, the goalkeeper is expected to start on October 29th in the DFB-Pokal vs. FC Köln. As it stands, Urbig likely will not be out that long, but it is a situation worth monitoring given that Manuel Neuer is suspended for that match.
