Bundesliga relief: Jamal Musiala addresses recent on‑field collapses

Bayern Munich’s Jamal Musiala reassured fans on Tuesday evening, confirming he is fine after suffering two on‑field fainting episodes three days apart in Bundesliga matches, explaining the incidents have a medical cause and that he expects to be ready for upcoming fixtures.

The first episode occurred during a match, followed by a second collapse three days later, both raising concerns among observers and supporters about his health.

Musiala explained his condition on Tuesday, saying:

« Je sais que beaucoup d’entre vous sont inquiets. Je veux apaiser ces inquiétudes aujourd’hui et expliquer un peu plus: on m’a diagnostiqué des absences passagères qui sont facilement traitables et causées par un dysfonctionnement neurologique. Celles‑ci peuvent mener aux moments qui se sont produits récemment. Je sais qu’ils peuvent sembler effrayants au premier abord, mais pour moi, elles font actuellement simplement partie de ma vie quotidienne. »

Un problème neurologique, not cardiac, underlies the episodes and is easily treatable. Musiala added he expects to be fit for Bayern’s first Bundesliga game on 28 August against Stuttgart and possibly for the German Super Cup versus Dortmund on Saturday.
