Bayern's Aleksandar Pavlovic Diagnosed with Mononucleosis, Out Indefinitely

The 20-year-old midfielder faces an extended recovery after tests confirmed the illness, following reports of a persistent infection.

Aleksandar Pavlovic, FC Bayern Munich's 20-year-old midfielder, has been diagnosed with mononucleosis, also known as Pfeiffer's glandular fever.
The diagnosis was confirmed by Bayern's sporting director Max Eberl after the team's Champions League victory against Bayer Leverkusen.
Pavlovic had been sidelined recently due to what the club initially described as a 'persistent infection.'
Mononucleosis, caused by the Epstein-Barr virus, typically results in symptoms such as fatigue, fever, swollen lymph nodes, and sore throat, with recovery often taking several weeks or more.
This marks Pavlovic's second significant absence in recent months, following a clavicle fracture that kept him out earlier in the season.
