Lennart Karl is considered one of the greatest football talents of his generation.
The 18-year-old attacking midfielder has already made an impression representing Bayern Munich and has been included in the German national team squad for the World Cup.
It is reported that L. Karl has a severe muscle strain.
“Unfortunately, Lenny got injured during training. We are going to the hospital to get a clear picture. Please do not follow us, let him rest in peace. We need a diagnosis, and then we will inform if we need a replacement,” J. Nagelsmann was quoted by Bild.
