Jamal Musiala Takes First Steps Back in Bayern Training After Six-Month Layoff

Bayern outline a phased comeback, targeting brief pre-Christmas sessions with initial minutes in January.

Overview

  • Musiala joined parts of first-team work for the first time since July, completing warm-ups and light passing 164 days after surgery on a fractured fibula and dislocated ankle.
  • He avoided contact drills and returned to individual rehabilitation after the short team segment at Bayern’s training ground.
  • Head coach Vincent Kompany reaffirmed a zero-pressure plan that aims for a few sessions before the break and a tentative match reintroduction in January.
  • Bayern do not expect him to feature in the year-ending Bundesliga trip to Heidenheim.
  • Teammates formed a guard of honour to welcome him back, and Harry Kane praised his return while urging patience as he rebuilds sharpness.
