Bayern Munich star Joshua Kimmich will be sidelined until 2021 after successfully completing surgery on his knee.
The 25-year-old needed to have an operation on his right lateral meniscus after being substituted in the 36th minute of the Bundesliga champions' 3-2 win over Dortmund on Saturday.
On Sunday evening, Bayern released a statement on their club website informing that Kimmich would not return from his injury until at least January.
