Berlin, May 10: Bayern Munich's Javi Martinez will miss the rest of the season after fracturing his left collarbone, the newly crowned Bundesliga champions announced.

The 28-year-old defender will be sidelined for the two remaining Bundesliga games against Leipzig and Freiburg as he fractured his left collarbone while hiking in the mountains on Sunday. Professor Hans Hertlein operated on Martinez in Munich on Tuesday, reports Xinhua news agency.
