With Bayern Munich’s entire squad currently fit, Vincent Kompany faces the difficult task of leaving one of the senior professionals out for Wednesday’s DFB-Pokal clash with RB Leipzig – just as he did for Sunday’s 5-1 win over Hoffenheim, when Kim Minjae was omitted.
According to TZ, it has been decided that Nicolas Jackson will not be in the squad this time.
The 24-year-old Senegalese striker has mostly featured as a substitute since joining Bayern on loan from Chelsea last summer.
So far, he has appeared 21 times across all competitions, making seven starts and scoring five goals.
Wednesday's quarter-final at the Allianz Arena will be kicked off at 20:45 CET.
