Nagelsmann, a vaccinated Bayern Munich manager, tests positive for Covid-19

 

 

The former RB Leipzig manager was not there for his team’s third Champions League match of the season, which concluded in another convincing win.

After missing Bayern Munich’s Champions League victory against Benfica on Wednesday due to a “flu-like illness,” Julian Nagelsmann tested positive for Covid-19.

Nagelsmann has had an excellent start to life as a Bayern Munich coach after joining from RB Leipzig in the summer.

However, he had to stand on the sidelines as his team extended their perfect start in Europe with a 4-0 triumph at the Estadio da Luz, with assistant coaches Dino Toppmoller and Xaver Zembrod on the touchline.
