Jamal Musiala returns for Bayern Munich before Champions League match
Summary

Bayern Munich chairman Jan-Christian Dreesen confirmed the return of Jamal Musiala following a recent health issue involving acute seizures. The midfielder appeared as a substitute during Saturday’s 0-0 draw against Schalke 04, a decision Dreesen cited as a sign of trust from head coach Vincent Kompany. Dreesen emphasized the importance of league competition for maintaining squad performance levels throughout the season. He dismissed the notion of fine-tuning player workloads for specific European fixtures, arguing that consistent competitive play remains vital. Bayern Munich shifts focus to their upcoming Champions League match against Bodø/Glimt on Tuesday, 8 September.
