Bayern Munich midfielder Jamal Musiala was taken off the pitch after collapsing in a pre-season friendly on Tuesday, three days after a similar incident in Munich.

n

The 23-year-old fell to the turf just minutes after coming on late into the match at second-division Heidenheim.

n

Musiala appeared dazed as he received medical treatment and was helped off the pitch.

n

After the match, Bayern sporting director Max Eberl said Musiala would make a comment on the situation soon.

n

“Jamal will speak about this in the near future. We knew about it and we are aware of the situation,” Eberl said.

n

“Jamal will speak out. He’s in the dressing room, getting changed and taking a shower.”

n

On Saturday, the Germany international fell to the pitch against RB Leipzig and required medical attention in hot conditions in the Bavarian capital, with temperatures well over 30C.

n

Musiala missed the first six months of last season due to a broken ankle sustained at the Club World Cup, but he returned in the second half of the campaign and played for Germany at the 2026 World Cup.
