The international break is over (for now), and Bayern Munich is preparing to take on FC Augsburg in the Bundesliga this weekend. Jamal Musiala, who suffered an injury during the international break, is now back on the pitch on the road to fitness (via Bayern’s official website):
Jamal Musiala was out on the pitch at Säbener Straße on Thursday as he works towards his comeback from a minor muscle tear. The 23-year-old attacker worked with fitness coach Simon Martinello prior to team training, doing
drills for changes of direction and enjoying some time with the ball at his feet. Musiala had sustained the injury in his right thigh a fortnight ago while warming up for Germany’s UEFA Nations League clash in the Netherlands.
Whether Musiala will be given the all-clear to play this Saturday remains to be seen; Serge Gnabry is also being managed carefully, though he may get a chance to start at the weekend. In any case, the Bavarians can play Lennart Karl, Ismael Saibari, or even Nathaniel Brown at the 10 position.
