This is getting more and more alarming.
Bayern Munich executive Max Eberl, who is in charge of the sporting side of the club, was asked about Jamal Musiala following the club’s 4-2 win over Heidenheim. For context, Musiala once again collapsed around the 66th minute, then had to be taken off soon after. Teammates had grim faces as the 23-year-old walked, and even jogged off the pitch.
Speaking to the media, Eberl was unable to provide any details about the situation, instead remaining cryptic.
Eberl's statement on Musiala via @BILD: "Jamal will speak about this in the near future. We knew about it and we are aware of the situation. Jamal will speak out. He’s in the dressing room, getting changed and taking a shower." https://t.co/ata6R0IBhN

He only replied: “Jamal will speak about it”

This is a very unusual statement, which will only fuel anxiety and paranoia in the fanbase. Jamal Musiala is not just one of Bayern Munich’s talismanic players, he was supposed to be the core of the next generation. If something is wrong, then the implications would be broad and devastating.
For now, we all wish Musiala the speediest of recoveries. Hopefully, FC Bayern communicates openly and clearly on this matter.
