World Sports · 22:05:07 - Tuesday, 3 November 2026

Bayern Munich midfielder Ismael Saibari has been ruled out following ankle surgery after a collision with Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel.

The incident occurred during a match between the two German clubs, with Saibari requiring surgical intervention on his ankle. The 24-year-old Moroccan international is expected to face a significant spell on the sidelines as he recovers from the procedure.

Saibari, who joined Bayern Munich in 2023, has been a regular contributor to the squad this season. His absence will be a blow to the Bavarian side as they navigate a demanding schedule across domestic and European competitions.

The club has not yet provided a specific timeline for his return, but ankle surgeries of this nature typically require several months of rehabilitation.
