Jamal Musiala of Bayern Munich controls the ball during the Champions League Round 1 match between Bayern Munich v Dinamo Zagreb, at the Allianz Arena, in Munich, Germany, on September 17, 2024.
Bayern Munich forward Jamal Musiala remains injured and will miss the team´s Bundesliga game against Stuttgart on Saturday.
“He won´t be in the squad,” Bayern coach Vincent Kompany said Friday of Musiala, who has been out with a hip injury.
The 21-year-old Musiala hasn´t played since Bayern´s 1-0 loss at Aston Villa in the Champions League on Oct. 2. Bayern announced two days later that the attacker would be “out for the time being.”
Kompany said he wasn´t sure if French defender Dayot Upamecano will be fit for Stuttgart. Eric Dier or Leon Goretzka could fill in in central defense alongside Kim Min-jae if Upamecano fails to recover for Stuttgart.
Stuttgart, which finished runner-up last season, has had a mixed start to this season, but Sebastian Hoeness´ team routed Borussia Dortmund 5-1 and is expected to be among Leverkusen´s biggest challengers again.
Bayern remains unbeaten under Kompany in six Bundesliga games and leads the table on goal difference ahead of Leipzig, which visits Mainz earlier Saturday.
