„Keep calm“: Matthäus advises patience with Jamal Musiala | OneFootball

Lothar Matthäus advises Jamal Musiala to be patient after his long injury break: no pressure, find your rhythm

Six months after his serious ankle and fibula injury, Jamal Musiala is about to make his comeback at FC Bayern. The exceptional player has been working on his return for weeks and should soon be fully available to the league leaders again. Expectations are naturally high for the 22-year-old – so it is all the more important to deal with the new start in the right way. Germany’s record international player Lothar Matthäus has a clear stance on this

Patience instead of pressure: Matthäus urges calm

In his Sky column, Matthäus made it clear what is important for Musiala now. The 1990 world champion emphasized that the attacking star has a stable and professional environment at FC Bayern, which knows exactly how to deal with such a situation. One thing is crucial above all: Musiala should not put himself under pressure. He no longer has to prove anything to anyone, but has to find his way back step by step – physically and mentally

Especially after such a long break, rhythm and a sense of achievement are essential, not only in the team structure, but also for his own feelings. Matthäus made it clear that these small, personal moments after an injury are enormously important in order to fully believe in yourself again. With a player of Musiala’s quality, the temptation to expect top performances again immediately is great. However, the former Bayern captain expressly warned against this

Bayern boss Max Eberl recently revealed that Musiala had suffered a minor setback in his recovery training, but the hope in Munich is that the exceptional player will return to the pitch in January

Despite all the caution, there is no question for Matthäus about the importance of Musiala for FC Bayern. Even in the intense competition of the top-class Munich squad, nothing is given to him. Nevertheless, with his talent, quality and experience, the attacking player is an indispensable factor when it comes to major titles. Keep calm, don’t get nervous and trust your own body – that’s the right way to go now

Coach Vincent Kompany is also likely to benefit from Musiala’s return, with Matthäus pointing out that the comeback gives the Bayern coach additional options that were previously unavailable to him. Musiala brings creativity, unpredictability and dynamism back into Munich’s game – qualities that could make all the difference in the decisive phase of the season

All the signs are that FC Bayern will carefully rebuild their difference-maker. If Musiala stays healthy and finds his rhythm, his comeback could be a real boost for the record champions, not only in sporting terms but also mentally.
