Just days before Klose showed that goalkeeper Oliver Kahn was also to be out of Bavaria for a month because of an elbow injury, then both players will miss the team crucial first round the UEFA Cup return match against Belenenses Lisbon, Portugal, next Thursday, October 4th.
Klose, 29, won the Golden Boot at the 2006 World Cup in Germany as top scorer with 5 goals, the same number of goals scored in his debut World Cup Korea-Japan 2002 making him the only player to score 5 or more goals in successive World Cups.
