Ismael Saibari's muscle injury more serious than initially thought

Ismael Saibari has been diagnosed with a torn muscle fiber in his thigh, indicating that his injury is more severe than initially assessed. The Bayern Munich transfer sustained the injury during the World Cup, leading to an early exit against Canada. Plans are in place for Saibari to begin his recovery in Munich after a short vacation, with hopes to join his teammates following their Asia tour ending on August 8. This setback is significant for Bayern as they look to integrate their new player into the squad.
