Bayern Munich have fined defender Jerome Boateng for leaving the city "without permission", an act in breach of the strict rules of confinement imposed due to the coronavirus outbreak.
According to TVO television, the 31-year-old had left the city in order to visit his son who suffered minor injuries in a road traffic accident on Tuesday.
"Bayern defender Jerome Boateng left Munich yesterday without permission from the club," said the German champions in a statement.
"Boateng has transgressed the guidelines issued by the club by being too far away from his home.
"These guidelines govern the behaviour of the FC Bayern players in the current situation in line with government directives on restrictions on movement and the recommendations of the health authorities."
