Earlier this month, the young talent had to withdraw from Germany’s international squad due to his hip issue. His last appearance for Bayern was in the team’s narrow 0-1 defeat against Aston Villa.

Following that match, he also missed the thrilling 3-3 draw against Eintracht Frankfurt, further raising concerns about his condition.

Musiala has not recovered

Recently, Musiala participated in a training session where he worked without the ball under the supervision of a physiotherapist. He engaged in some light exercises for about 15 minutes.

However, despite these efforts, there remains uncertainty surrounding his fitness for Bayern’s league match against Stuttgart on Saturday.

Nevertheless, he remains optimistic about being ready to face the formidable challenge that Barcelona presents on Wednesday.

Barcelona might find Musiala’s absence advantageous. This season, he has already contributed to six goals for Bayern, showcasing his crucial role in the team’s attacking play.

His presence on the pitch would undoubtedly enhance Bayern’s chances of securing a win, making his injury a potential boon for Barcelona.

As the anticipation builds for Bayern’s upcoming match against Stuttgart, all eyes will be on Musiala’s recovery process.

The follow-up of the match will likely dictate his training schedule and ultimately determine his availability for the high-stakes clash against Barcelona.

It is evident that Musiala’s fitness will be closely monitored in the coming days, as his return to full training will play a pivotal role in Bayern’s strategy for the next round of fixtures.
