No 'big deal' if Jamal Musiala has another seizure, Bayern coach Kompany says
Kompany said Bayern are monitoring Musiala in training after a medication change and will decide on his return to matchday squads later this week.
- Bayern Munich coach Vincent Kompany is evaluating Jamal Musiala's training performance before deciding on a return to the match-day squad, following the 23-year-old's inclusion in the Champions League squad.
- After collapsing twice during preseason, Musiala disclosed his diagnosis of "absence seizures caused by a neurological dysfunction," though Bayern maintains there is "no additional health risk" associated with playing.
- Following a medication change, Musiala has returned to training and is "doing well," with Kompany noting the public shock is "slowly subsiding" while the club consults the "very best experts."
- The midfielder's next opportunity to play is Saturday when Bayern visits Schalke in the Bundesliga, or alternatively in the team's Champions League opener against Bodo/Glimt on Thursday.
- Kompany emphasized that if seizures recur in 40, 50, or 60 days, it is "no longer a big deal" for the club, which focuses on helping Musiala return as a "totally normal athlete.
