Bayern Munich midfielder Thiago Alcantara is set to miss "several weeks" of action after the club confirmed he has suffered an ankle ligament tear.
In a statement on the club's website, the German champions provided full details of the issue:
"The Spain international tore the lateral collateral ligament and the articular capsule in his right ankle in the DFB-Pokal tie against the Regional League side SV Rodinghausen. That was the diagnosis by the club doctor Dr. Hans-Wilhelm Muller-Wohlfahrt on Wednesday after returning from Osnabruck."
Thiago was withdrawn from the game with 15 minutes remaining on Tuesday.
