Jamal Musiala is targeting a return to action for Bayern Munich before the end of 2025. Musiala suffered a fractured fibula and a dislocated ankle in a challenge with Gianluigi Donnarumma during Bayern's defeat to Paris Saint-Germain at the Club World Cup in July. Bayern confirmed he would be absent for a minimum of four months and would require surgery immediately. The Germany playmaker recorded 21 goals and eight assists in all competitions for Bayern last season.
"It wasn't an easy decision," Musiala confessed. "I still have a lot of love for England and a lot of my closest friends are from there. But it was a decision that me and my family made together."
A Stuttgart spokesperson says Nick Woltemade is expected back in VfB training on July 28 and will take part in the pre-season camp in Rottach-Egern with his teammates.
Luis Diaz is reportedly set to leave Anfield for Bayern Munich, with a deal now agreed as the German club accelerates its pursuit for attacking reinforcements after Jamal Musiala's injury.
