THE MUSIALA SITUATION
Bayern were dealt a brutal blow when Jamal Musiala suffered a horrific injury in the Club World Cup match against Paris Saint-Germain. Musiala clashed with goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma which saw him stretchered out of the game. The player has now undergone surgery on his fibula and will be out for the next few months.
Speaking in an interview, sporting director Max Eberl spoke about the likelihood of signing a replacement for him, saying: "We feel like we don't have to do that much when planning our squad – including for the 2025/26 season. We won't react to every injury and bring in players for that reason. The squad has to be right, and we know that the players will hopefully be back in October or November and then be ready for the end of the first half of the season and the second half."

Bayern are thin in the attacking department and director Eberl will be actively seeking reinforcements before the end of the summer window as they look to build on last season's Bundesliga title win.
