Injury list clears: Bayern soon set to have a full squad to choose from | OneFootball

Vincent Kompany can slowly breathe a sigh of relief: The injury list at FC Bayern is noticeably clearing up. Here's the status on the comebacks of Davies, Musiala, and others.

On Monday, Kompany resumed training with the professionals who stayed in Munich during the international break. Among them was captain Manuel Neuer, who is starting the crucial phase with renewed energy after a few days off. Particularly pleasing for the coach: The number of injured players is decreasing, and several key players are nearing their return to the field.

For Alphonso Davies, individual ball contact is already part of the program, and internally, a return in November is considered possible. The 24-year-old is consistently working towards his comeback. "I'm running and training well. I just need to gain a bit more muscle mass on my right leg," Davies said recently. "When the doctors told me after the injury how long it might take, I thought, 'Oh wow, this is going to be a long journey.' But now everything looks good."

Jamal Musiala is also reporting progress and is already training on an Alter-G treadmill – a device that reduces body weight and allows for joint-friendly running. Speaking to Sport Bild, the 22-year-old said: "I'm taking my time, I don't want to name a date." He added: "But with the progress I've made so far, I would say: I want to play competitive matches with FC Bayern in 2025." A return in December is considered a realistic option within the club.

Hiroki Ito is being reintroduced very cautiously after three metatarsal fractures. Step by step, the defender is to be reintegrated into team training. Josip Stanisic, on the other hand, is close to returning after overcoming a partial tear of the medial ligament and could already be in the squad against BVB.

There is also movement in the goalkeeping department: Jonas Urbig (adductor injury) recently trained individually and is close to returning to team training. The 22-year-old is likely to be back on the bench in the league soon, while in the DFB-Pokal, he is expected to start – as Manuel Neuer is absent due to his red card suspension. Urbig's special goal: the second-round match on October 29 at his former club 1. FC Köln.
