FC Bayern Munich: Jamal Musiala is out after suffering neurological dysfunction

The two failures of Bayern professional Jamal Musiala during the friendly matches against 1. FC Heidenheim and RB Leipzig are apparently due to a change in treatment. »He changed something in the medication. That's why it became more obvious in the short time," said sports director Max Eberl at a press conference.

Musiala had to be treated by medical staff in the 4-2 (1-2) win against Heidenheim and ended the game a few minutes after being substituted on. In the test against RB Leipzig (3-1) last Saturday, he initially lay motionless on the pitch and then left the pitch.

Following the incident against Heidenheim, Musiala announced on Instagram that he had been diagnosed with "temporary, short-term but easily treatable absences" which were due to a "neurological dysfunction".

“It’s been some time since our first moment of shock”

Musiala is currently training individually, he is missing from the squad for the Supercup game against Dortmund on Saturday (8.30 p.m./Sat.1 and Sky). Kompany announced that he should now prepare for his new treatment “without pressure.” “We are very optimistic about Jamal.” The offensive star will then be back in action.

FC Bayern has been informed about Musiala's condition for a long time. "We've known it all last season," said Eberl. “Our first moment of shock was some time ago,” Kompany also assured. The people of Munich could have obtained further information from experts a long time ago. "We're not dealing with this in a state of unrest," Kompany assured.
