Jamal Musiala is likely to make his return to action with Bayern Munich in Saturday's away league game against Leipzig, after almost seven months out with a serious injury. The 22-year-old German attacking midfielder suffered a fibula fracture and ankle dislocation in a Club World Cup match in July. Despite his absence, Bayern is having an impressive season, setting goal and goal difference records in the league. Coach Vincent Kompany emphasized that Musiala and also Alphonso Davies, who is also fit again, will not be pressured to perform at their best immediately.
