Joshua Kimmich is a German professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for the Bundesliga club Bayern Munich and the Germany national team.

Kimmich sustained a knee ligament injury in January 2019 while playing for Bayern Munich against Eintracht Frankfurt. The injury required surgery, which took several months to recover from. In May 2021, it was announced that Kimmich had made a full recovery from his knee ligament injury and would be able to return to training.

However, in June 2021, Kimmich suffered a setback when he tore his cruciate ligaments in his right knee during a friendly match against Borussia Mönchengladbach. The injury required further surgery,Bundesliga Express and Kimmich has been out of action since then.

Despite his absence from the field, Kimmich remains an important player for Bayern Munich and the Germany national team. He has played a key role in Bayern's success over the past few years, and his experience and leadership will be missed during his time on the sidelines.

It remains to be seen how long Kimmich will be out of action, but his continued commitment to his rehabilitation suggests that he will make a full recovery. Until then, fans of both Bayern Munich and the Germany national team can look forward to seeing Kimmich back on the pitch as soon as possible.
