“The operation was a success. The Brazilian will begin his recovery programme in around 14 days.”
Bayern’s first team squad are currently training in preparation of restarting the Bundesliga season.
Coutinho has made 32 appearances for the Bavarian club so far this season, scoring nine goals and contributing eight assists.
