Bad news for Tuchel: Choupo-Moting to miss Man City clash

Bad news for Thomas Tuchel. Bayern Munich confirmed that Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting will miss the Champions League match against Manchester City.

"Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting will not travel to Manchester for #FCBMCI. The forward is unavailable due to a knee problem," they wrote on Twitter.

Bayern will be without their top goalscorer of the season and it is a huge setback for new coach Thomas Tuchel. The German manager will have to replace Choupo-Moting for the showdown against Pep Guardiola's side.

The 34-year-old has been a key player in the team as he replaced Robert Lewandowski and Sadio Mane when he was injured.
