Comeback within reach: Musiala hits next milestone | OneFootball

Four months after his serious injury, Jamal Musiala is gradually returning to the field. The offensive player has now made another important step forward.

The 22-year-old resumed ball exercises on Monday for the first time – a significant step in his rehab following the fracture of his left fibula. According to BILD, his individual program now also includes technical sessions, after previously only running and stabilization exercises were on the agenda. Musiala reaching this milestone is seen in Munich as a clear signal of a continued smooth recovery process.

In recent weeks, it had already become apparent that the national player is on schedule. According to BILD, there remains internal hope to see him back on the field with the team this year. However, there are no specific dates – a return to team training could also extend into January.

During the Champions League match against Paris, Musiala was still a spectator. Four months earlier, he had been injured in the Club World Cup match against the same opponent – after a collision with Gianluigi Donnarumma. Sporting director Max Eberl expressed cautious optimism: “He is already doing very well. The end is in sight.”

FC Bayern is taking a careful approach with their key player. Even though there is still hope for a comeback before the end of the year, the club does not want to take any risks. The goal: Musiala should be back at 100 percent in the crucial phase from March.

The player himself also does not want to rush anything. “I really want to be at 100 percent when I return,” Musiala emphasized recently in an interview with the club. In Munich, there is no pressure, especially since the team is currently performing steadily. It currently seems most likely that Musiala will fully train with the team for the first time at the winter training camp.
