Jamal Musiala has missed Bayern Munich's first three competitive games of the season after suffering two collapses caused by absence seizures linked to a neurological condition during pre-season.
The 23-year-old has since returned to team training, but it's unclear when he'll return to competitive action, with Bayern coach Vincent Kompany set to make a late call on his availability for Saturday's away game against Schalke 04.
“He's had a good and full week of training. He's doing well. We've already stated how we'll handle him. Jamal is in a good spell. We've been dealing with the situation for longer than the public know. We'll see in training today and will then make a decision that's the best for Jamal and the team,” Kompany told reporters at a press conference on Friday.
“I won't always give updates on it in the future. We always have the very best experts helping us. Jamal also communicates very well about it. We'll make the right decision in a sporting sense. He needs to be able to play and perform properly. He's got no problems there. If it were to then happen again, it's not a big alarm for us anymore,” he added.
“We'll make a decision today about Jamal, depending on how he deals with training.”
Meanwhile, Serge Gnabry remains on the road to recovery from the adductor injury he suffered last season.
“Serge Gnabry won't be involved yet this week. Hopefully next week. The main priority is that he feels good,” Kompany said.
Bayern face Schalke 04 at the Veltins-Arena on Saturday at 18:30 CEST.
