Bayern Reassembles First Team at Säbener Straße as Internationals Return
The inflow of players gives Vincent Kompany more rotation choices ahead of a congested stretch of league, cup and Champions League matches.
Overview
- Bayern has welcomed back many senior players and several youth prospects to training at Säbener Straße after the international break, restoring numbers for full-group work.
- Players reported training this week include Manuel Neuer, Joshua Kimmich, Alphonso Davies, Jonathan Tah, Sven Ulreich and Luis Díaz, with youth-team members also involved.
- A final wave of internationals — named by local beat reporters as Harry Kane, Michael Olise, Josip Stanišić, Kim Min-jae and Hiroki Itō — is expected to return to the club imminently according to those reports.
- Jamal Musiala has progressed to individual on-pitch sessions as he recovers from a torn thigh muscle, but Bayern have given no firm comeback date and say they will manage his load cautiously to avoid setbacks.
- With Bundesliga, Champions League and DFB-Pokal fixtures coming up, the restored squad depth should let Kompany rotate more by using veterans, recent internationals and youth players while monitoring recovery and minutes.
