A device for bleeding compressor air in a turbofan engine includes a low-pressure compressor of a primary duct, a fan stator arranged in a secondary duct downstream of a fan, and an arrangement for discharging compressor air from the low-pressure compressor into the secondary duct. The arrangement includes air guiding devices to guide compressor air into the secondary duct upstream of the fan stator relative to the flow direction in the secondary duct, past the stator vanes of the fan stator in a separate duct in the axial direction and is only mixed with the air of the secondary duct downstream of the fan stator. The separate duct is formed by a plurality of hollow structures extending in the longitudinal direction each between two adjacent stator vanes of the fan stator, with the hollow structures having a closed circumference in cross-section.
