Ever since Jamal Musiala suffered a horrific injury at last year’s Club World Cup, he hasn’t had the smoothest returns (where he’s now nursing a fresh knock). Joshua Kimmich, his Bayern Munich and German NT teammate, knows the qualities that the 23-year-old brings and hopes to see him soon.
“Jamal is a very important player for Bayern and Germany. We all hope he will soon be healthy,” Kimmich said (as captured by X account @iMiaSanMia). “He suffered a very big injury last summer. It’s not easy to
come back to your previous level immediately. I thought he did well in the games he played, especially the ones he started. He showed that he’s a special player. Even though we’re already playing at a good level at Bayern at the moment, we know that when Jamal is there, he can make the difference at any moment. He’s extremely important to us because he has a quality that is rare in the football world.”
Musiala will sit out both of Germany’s friendlies this month, but his availability for the first leg of the quarterfinal against Real Madrid in the Champions League is still up in the air.
