Hansi Flick began the Sunday morning training session with some good news: "Javi is back on the pitch," said the 54-year-old when he welcomed the Bayern players onto the training ground. Midfielder Javi Martinez is back after a two-month injury lay-off. The good news was received with applause from his team-mates before the Spaniard aimed his reply at his fellow players.
Martínez completes full session
Nine weeks after he suffered a muscle injury in his thigh in the home game against VfL Wolfsburg (2-1), the 31-year-old completed the full one-hour morning training session. In addition to running and passing drills, the session also involved a practice match.
