Bayern Munich winger Franck Ribery will be out for two weeks after injuring his knee during the 1-1 draw against Wolfsburg on Saturday.
An MRI Sunday morning confirmed a left knee strain.
Ribery was quoted on Bayern's website as saying that he is "happy and also relieved."
He will likely miss Bayern's next game Saturday at home against Kaiserslautern and the German Cup quarterfinal against Alemannia Aachen on Jan. 26.
Ribery, 27, left the Wolfsburg game in the first half after a challenge by Josue, who stepped on his left foot. Bayern officials had feared a more serious injury.
The France international had just returned to full fitness after a long layoff with an ankle injury.
