Report: Bayern Munich's Robert Lewandowski Set for Minor Surgery on Groin Injury

Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski will reportedly undergo minor surgery on a groin issue during the international break.

According to German outlet Kicker (h/t Onefootball's Lewis Ambrose), the procedure will alleviate pain the Pole has been feeling in his groin for some time, but it is not expected to keep him out of club action.

The operation has a recovery period of around 10 days, but the international break brings a 14-day gap between Bayern's clash with Borussia Dortmund on November 10 and their game with Fortuna Dusseldorf on November 23.

Poland have already qualified for UEFA Euro 2020, so it's of little consequence to them if he's absent for their games with Israel and Slovenia during the break.
