Kompany confirms Musiala will miss Supercup clash with "quality" Dortmund side | OneFootball

Ahead of tomorrow night's Supercup clash with Borussia Dortmund, Vincent Kompany has confirmed that Jamal Musiala won't feature. 

“Every decision was made based on the best possible information. We know how to handle it. He'll be training individually this week. 

"I spoke to Jamal and he said I can speak about that. He made a slight change to his treatment, which caused some side effects.

“It's perfectly normal to make changes to a treatment plan. Now we want to get things back to how it was before,” he said at his press conference.

After adding that Serge Gnabry and Lennart Karl will also be unavailable, Kompany discussed the challenge of facing Dortmund.

“It would be great if we could win a title in Dortmund. Maybe it could have been with 50-50 fans; that would have added a final atmosphere.

“But winning a title away in Dortmund would also be very nice. The quality and power of the Dortmund team is high. There's no tougher challenge in the Bundesliga,” he explained.

With regards to new Germany national team coach Jürgen Klopp, Kompany kept tight-lipped about their interactions to date. 

“I don't want to reveal that. I've known Jürgen Klopp for a long time from England and I am looking forward to working together.

“We have worked against each other in fierce competition for many years. We will have an open exchange at some point,” he concluded.
