Overview
- Serge Gnabry completed full team training on Tuesday and is close to being match-available after an April adductor tear, though final clearance will follow a last check in training.
- Vincent Kompany said he will make a case-by-case decision on Gnabry’s involvement and stressed the club will not rush the winger back before he reaches his previous level.
- Jamal Musiala has been reintroduced gradually, playing limited minutes while staff monitor his recovery from the pre-season health episodes and adjust his workload.
- If cleared, Gnabry would give Bayern extra flexibility to play as a No.10 or on the wing and could alter the starting pecking order, with pundits speculating Ismael Saibari may face pressure for his place.
- Bayern host Bodø/Glimt at the Allianz Arena on Thursday, a match that tests squad depth because Bodø impressed in last season’s Champions League and Bayern aim to manage players for a long European run.
