MUNICH — Bayern Munich goalkeeper Mala Grohs has revealed that she has been diagnosed with a malignant tumor as the club extended her contract in a sign of support. The 23-year-old Grohs has played in all of Bayern's games this season in the Women's Champions League. Bayern says Grohs will be out indefinitely so she can "concentrate fully on her recovery." The club extended her contract by a year through the end of next season. Grohs says in a video message that she is "very optimistic" ahead of her treatment.
