Michael Olise left the Klassiker between Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund in the 82nd minute after feeling pain in his right knee. His participation in the next match against Atlético Madrid remains uncertain, according to SeneNews, which said Bayern has not yet commented on his availability.

Michael Olise left the pitch in the 82nd minute of the Klassiker between Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund on Saturday 31 October after feeling pain in his right knee. The France international winger is doubtful for the match against Atlético Madrid, reports SeneNews.

Bayern Munich has not issued an official diagnosis of its player’s injury. The German club nevertheless hopes to be able to count on Olise for the match, while his absence would deprive the team of an attacking player ahead of the fixture.

Olise’s departure came during the 2-2 draw between Bayern and Dortmund, reported on 31 October. It follows Saïbari’s injury in that match, also announced on 31 October.
