"Musiala has been exceptionally brilliant when called upon by the German national team, impressing at the 2022 FIFA World Cup and a great performance at EURO 2024, with other great matches throughout the following Nations League campaigns. Since then though, Musiala has been unavailable for Nagelsmann's selection, and as a result, could be out of sync with the squad come this summer's World Cup."
"Sky Germany reports that Musiala is in doubt to be called up for the March friendlies against Switzerland and Ghana due to fitness concerns. If so, this would be a massive blow for Musiala and the national team. It has been a full year since Musiala has played for Germany, with his last appearance against Italy on March 23rd, 2025."
"The nation will need Musiala at his best in order to have a successful tournament, but on the other hand if he is hurt once more, he might not be available at the tournament whatsoever. Perhaps Nagelsmann will opt to bring the 23-year-old to the camp in March simply to integrate him back in the squad and planning for the upcoming tournament."
Jamal Musiala, a standout performer for Bayern Munich and the German national team, has been sidelined since suffering a serious injury at the FIFA Club World Cup last summer. Despite impressive performances at the 2022 FIFA World Cup and EURO 2024, Musiala has been unavailable for selection under manager Nagelsmann for an entire year, with his last appearance against Italy in March 2025. Sky Germany reports he is doubtful for upcoming March friendlies against Switzerland and Ghana due to fitness concerns. Germany's success at the summer World Cup depends significantly on Musiala's availability and form, though his continued injury issues raise questions about whether he will be fit for the tournament.
