Bayern celebrates Supercup victory despite injuries to Laimer and Gnabry!
The German Supercup took place on August 17, 2025, where FC Bayern Munich defeated VfB Stuttgart.

Laimer suffered an injury when he plunged outside the field. However, Bayern sports director Christoph Freund gave the all-clear and explained that Laimer only had a cramp and problems with the little toe. Freund is optimistic that he won't be long.
In the 80th minute, Serge Gnabry was also replaced after falling on his knee and suffering a slight cramp. Freund also expressed hope for a quick return for Gnabry. The two players are important players in FC Bayern squad, who starts the new Bundesliga season against RB Leipzig next Friday.

This could be particularly useful for athletes such as Laimer and Gnabry, who have to pay attention to their fitness and recovery.
