After horror injury: Musiala set for lengthy spell out, say reports | OneFootball

The serious injury to Jamal Musiala in yesterday’s FIFA Club World Cup quarterfinal between PSG and FC Bayern has shocked football fans around the world. According to media reports, an initial diagnosis is already available.

As both 'kicker' and 'Bild' report independently, Musiala is said to have suffered a fibula fracture. The latter also mention damage to several ligaments and predict an absence of four to five months. However, further and more detailed medical examinations will only take place on Sunday after the return to Munich.

With an absence of four to five months, the football year 2025 would indeed be over for Musiala, but the worst fears from yesterday would be averted. Many fans had already suspected that the severity of the injury could mean he would miss the entire 25/26 season as well as the upcoming 2026 World Cup.

Nevertheless, it remains to be seen what the further examinations on site in Munich will reveal.
