Hiroki Ito (25, Bayern Munich) was once again out of the team's power.
Munich said on the club's website on November 5, "Ito had surgery. Ito needed additional surgery on his metatarsal area. Ito's surgery was successful."
Munich continued, "Ito will be absent again for the time being. We plan to help Ito resume his rehabilitation program as soon as possible."
Ito left Stuttgart for Munich in the German Bundesliga in the transfer market this summer.
Munich reportedly invested about 30 million euros (about 45.2 billion won) in the transfer fee, including options, to recruit Ito.
Ito is a talent who can play both a central defender, a full-back and a defensive midfielder.
Ito, who is 188 centimeters tall and has fast feet, is also left-footed.
Ito was a defensive resource with advantages in ball control and passing power and played as a key player behind Stuttgart from 2021-22 to 2023-24.
After Ito joined Munich, a number of German media outlets poured out predictions that "Kim Min-jae may be pushed out of the starting lineup."
The German media's outlook is completely off the mark.
Munich coach Vincent Kompany gives Kim Min-jae strong trust.
Kim Min-jae returned as a Munich built-in defender and has one goal in nine Bundesliga games this season.
Kim Min-jae also started all three UEFA Champions League (UCL) games.
Ito did not even make his Munich debut.
Ito played only two friendlies in the preseason wearing a Munich uniform. 안전놀이터
Ito has only been rehabilitating since suffering an injury in a friendly match against Duren during the pre-season. It will take more time for him to return to the ground as he recently underwent surgery again.
