Bayern Munich’s creative jewel, Jamal Musiala, is inching closer to a long-awaited return — but patience remains the name of the game in Bavaria.
According to Bild (via @iMiaSanMia), Musiala has reached an important stage in his rehabilitation process, training on the AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill, where he can jog using about 80% of his body weight. It’s a vital milestone that signals progress, though a full recovery is still weeks away. The club’s medical team has cautiously set December as the target for his comeback, hoping to see him feature before the Bundesliga’s winter break.
For Bayern, this is a delicate balancing act. Musiala — one of Europe’s most gifted young talents — remains central to Vincent Kompany’s attacking blueprint. His absence has been deeply felt, especially in games where Bayern’s creativity in the final third seemed to lack its usual spark. Yet, with his long-term health on the line, the club is resisting any temptation to rush him back onto the pitch.
The conversation inside Säbener Straße reportedly revolves around whether to reintroduce Musiala gradually in December or give him the entire winter break to reset fully before the intense second half of the season. Kompany and sporting director Max Eberl both understand the stakes — Bayern simply cannot afford to risk their most prized asset.
Musiala, who has already built a reputation as a generational playmaker for both club and country, continues to work tirelessly behind the scenes. His recovery sessions include endurance work, strength conditioning, and ball control drills, all aimed at ensuring he returns sharper than ever.
Fans have been eagerly following every update, flooding social media with messages of encouragement. Bayern supporters know how much difference a fit Musiala can make — his ability to glide past defenders, unlock packed defenses, and create magic out of nothing makes him an indispensable piece of Bayern’s title ambitions.
If all goes according to plan, Musiala’s comeback could be the perfect early Christmas gift for Bayern Munich — one that reignites their attacking rhythm and lifts spirits in the dressing room heading into 2026.
For now, Bayern’s message remains clear: no risks, only readiness. Because when Jamal Musiala returns, they want him back for good — stronger, faster, and ready to mesmerize once again.
