“Hiroki Ito is out, Alphonso Davies is out and Harry Kane is out. He got a knock on his calf and hasn't recovered yet,” Kompany said.
"It's just a knock, it's nothing serious for the time being, but we're missing a day maybe for him to be involved. We're pretty relaxed, of course we would have liked Harry to be involved, but these things happen."
On the positive side for the German champions, Kompany confirmed that Manuel Neuer has recovered from injury and is fit to start in goal.
Kompany also noted that Kane’s absence could give other players the chance to step into the spotlight.
“The lads who are involved tomorrow against Gladbach are really looking forward to it. If Harry isn't involved, some of the lads are hoping they can get their moment. We as the staff are also looking forward to being part of that,” he said.
Bayern will hope to have Harry Kane fit for the first leg of their Champions League round of 16 clash with Atalanta on Tuesday.
