Bayern Midfielder Musiala Reveals 'Neurological' Issue After Collapse During Game for 2nd Time
- Bayern Munich forward Jamal Musiala collapsed during a match against Heidenheim on Tuesday, marking the second time in one week the 23-year-old required medical attention after a similar incident against Leipzig on Saturday.
- Musiala revealed a diagnosis of "neurological dysfunction" causing brief, temporary episodes of absence that are "easily treatable," though he emphasized there is "no additional health risk beyond this."
- Teammates Jonathan Tah and Harry Kane rushed to assist the disoriented forward at Voith-Arena, forming a protective ring to shield Musiala from cameras as medics treated him on the field.
- Bayern director of sport Max Eberl confirmed Musiala was conscious afterward, stating "The most important thing is that is well" and noting the player will address the situation publicly soon.
- The forward's availability for Saturday's Supercup against Borussia Dortmund remains in doubt, following a history of fitness issues including a 2025 ankle injury that limited him to 15 league appearances last season.
