Out until new year Kimmich (COVID-19) is out until the new year, the club announced Thursday. Impact Kimmich is dealing with complications from COVID-19 during his recovery from the virus, he is done self-isolating but has some slight lung issues. The midfielder and future captain was notably not vaccinated, and with new lockdown rules going into effect in Germany could be subject to some difficulties playing, training and traveling. At the very least, Kimmich is out until 2022, with Leon Goretzka and Corentin Tolisso playing defensive midfield in his absence.
