Jamal Musiala Returns to Running After Bayern Munich Muscle Injury
Post-Muscle Injury Recovery: Musiala Resumes Training Again - Following a muscle injury, Musiala resumes running again.
In a piece of good news for FC Bayern and the German national team, midfielder Jamal Musiala has taken a major step towards recovery following his muscle injury. The 22-year-old completed his first running laps since the injury on Wednesday, as announced by the Munich club. Musiala sustained a muscle bundle tear in his left thigh during the 3-1 win over Augsburg back in early April.
This development is music to the ears of national team coach Julian Nagelsmann, especially given the upcoming Nations League semi-finals. Germany will go head-to-head with Portugal, featuring star player Cristiano Ronaldo, in Munich on June 4th (9 PM). The second semi-final will take place in Stuttgart the following day, between European champions Spain and World Cup runners-up France. The final will be held in Munich on June 8th (9 PM), with the third-place playoff taking place in Stuttgart on the same day.
With the Nations League final squad announcement just a few days away after the last Bundesliga matchday on May 22nd, Nagelsmann will have a crucial decision to make regarding Musiala's inclusion. Considering the muscle tear recovery timeline, Musiala could potentially return to action around late May or early June - just in time for the Nations League semi-finals. It's not outside the realm of possibility that he could earn a spot in the squad if his form upon return impresses and the manager deems him fit. However, any final decisions remain to be seen.
