FC Bayern Munich is facing significant challenges as star player Jamal Musiala will miss the upcoming March internationals due to an injury. This absence could have serious implications for both the club and the national team.
Musiala sustained a strain in his left ankle during the Champions League round of 16 match against Atalanta Bergamo. As a result, he was unable to participate in the Bundesliga match against Bayer Leverkusen, marking a crucial absence for the team.
Furthermore, Musiala is expected to miss the upcoming match against Union Berlin before the international break, which adds to the concerns surrounding his fitness. This will be the first time in ten months that he has not been part of the national team setup.
In light of Musiala’s injury, Lennart Karl is set to be called up to the senior national team for the first time. The DFB side is scheduled to play against Switzerland on 27 March and Ghana on 30 March, making the timing of Musiala’s recovery critical.
Both Vincent Kompany and Julian Nagelsmann are in contact regarding Musiala’s condition. Nagelsmann has emphasized the importance of having both Musiala and Kai Havertz back in the national team, stating, “It would be advisable for them to return in March, because it feels like they’ve been away for an eternity.”
As Musiala continues his rehabilitation, Eberl noted, “He has now completed a week of rehabilitation,” indicating progress but also highlighting the uncertainty surrounding his return.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding the exact timeline for Musiala’s recovery, leaving fans and the coaching staff anxious about his availability for the crucial matches ahead.
