Julian Nagelsmann: "Joshua Kimmich has had contact with someone from his environment suspected to be infected with coronavirus. He missed training today as a precaution. We'll know more during the day"
Nagelsmann on the personnel: "Kingsley Coman is struggling with slight muscular problems. He'll miss tomorrow's game as a precaution. Choupo and Phonzie have just returned from their national teams. They'll travel to Augsburg then we'll see. Phonzie is unlikely to start"
JN on Nübel statements regarding sharing game time with Neuer: "It's always good when players have self-confidence and ambition. We have the world's best goalkeeper and I don't want to take him off as long as he's fit. We'll discuss this when it's time. Now I'm happy with Manu"
Nagelsmann on Süle: "Niki has mild symptoms. It's a similar situation to me, he can get out of his quarantine after 14 days"
JN on Covid: Of course the topic is annoying, it annoys everyone. We're playing against Augsburg in 24 hours, but no one has asked about the game yet. All talk is about Corona. In the past, people talked 3G only when it comes to mobile phone networks, now it's something different
JN: "I treat the players equally, vaccinated or unvaccinated. For me they are not better or worse people. I also talk to them (about it), but my main focus is the sporting topics. That's why I'm employed as a football coach and not as a pandemic officer"
JN: "The (unvaccinated) players are allowed to go to the hotel. At the beginning of the week they couldn't, then the decision changed for business travelers. It depends on the state. But it's not that easy for politicians to always make the right decisions"
JN on Augsburg: "It's not clear what system they will be using, whether a back three or four. When Augsburg played against Bayern, they always tried to counter-attack and play with quick transitions. We are prepared for several options"
JN on Goretzka's fitness after the injury he suffered against Liechtenstein: "Things are looking good for Leon. He has trained three times already and no longer has problems. He will be available tomorrow"
JN on Coman playing RWB for France: "He has played the position with us a number of times. Now he has also played it for France. Against Finland he had to do more defensive runs, which affected his muscles a bit. He will probably be back against Kiev."
JN on Kimmich: "In 48 hours (after he left his quarantine) you can see a person, we don't live in Alaska. It's not entirely unlikely that you could meet a person who has Corona. But I can assure you that it did not happen during his quarantine. We'll wait for the result"
JN on the criticism of Qatar deal: "I've already expressed my opinion many times. I'm a fan of solving problems through dialogue. In this case, it's also good to try to change things through dialogue. As far as the annual general meeting is concerned, this is a topic for the club
