Jamal Musiala‘s return to fitness has been long and complicated.
First, Musiala endured a long spell on the sidelines after suffering a fractured fibula and dislocated ankle. Then, after earning valuable minutes at the World Cup, the 23-year-old suffered another unnerving setback, collapsing in Bayern’s Telekom Cup clash against RB Leipzig, and again in his side’s final preseason friendly against Heidenheim.
Despite overwhelming support for Musiala, rumours have started circulating linking Bayern to a replacement for Musiala after learning about his condition. However, according to Steffan Kumberger of Sport1 (via @iMiaSanMia), discussions about replacing the German international are a non-starter as the club plans to provide the time and support Musiala requires.
Signing a replacement for Jamal Musiala has never been up for discussion at the club. Bayern believe they’re very well equipped in the position with Ismael Saibari, who was signed when Bayern were already aware of Musiala’s problems, as well as Serge Gnabry and Lennart Karl who can provide additional cover. In addition, the club does not want to give Musiala the feeling that they’re giving up on him. The 23-year old will get all the support and time he needs, and Bayern are also relaxed because the team had already performed exceptionally well without Musiala last season. Therefore, there’s no rush and no panic at the club – and Musiala can take his time and slowly regain a key role in the team.

Fans long for the day of seeing Bambi back to his brilliant best, prancing around bamboozled defenders. But some things are paramount to football.
Bayern Munich and it’s fans will be fully behind Musiala as he makes his recovery and return to full fitness.
