10月3日，拜仁官方发布消息，表明边路多才多艺的球员格纳布里已从德国国家队离队，他将缺席本期欧洲国家联赛的第四场比赛。
德国拜仁俱乐部正式透露，塞尔吉·格纳布里已从国家队集训地启程，重返慕尼黑。作为迄今为止德国队在欧洲国家联赛前三场赛事的全勤球员，这位31岁的球员在周四慕尼黑对阵塞尔维亚的比赛中，担纲队长一职，助力球队以2-0的比分获胜。
在新任主教练尤尔根·克洛普公布的23人参赛名单中，格纳布里并未被列入，因此他也将缺席在塞萨洛尼基举行的与希腊的客场较量。
The 31-year-old winger suffered a severe injury in March, which led to his absence from the final stages of the season and the World Cup. He has only recently returned to action, having made his comeback last month, and has appeared for Bayern Munich just once this term.
