Current Eintracht Frankfurt manager Dino Toppmöller - who worked under Julian Nagelsmann at Bayern - spoke this week about Jamal Musiala's goal on the last matchday of the 2022/23 season that clinched the 11th Meisterschale in a row. Toppmöller, like the rest of Nagelsmann's crew, was let go in March when Thomas Tuchel was put into power, but he felt involved in that final goal and the celebrations.

"That's normal after such a big move abroad. But he's a superb player, he will get used to the Premier League over time and be able to handle the even bigger pressure. I felt the same way at Inter at the beginning. Andi Brehme, whose transfer was rather quiet, performed immediately at Inter. I had to get used to everything, partly due to the media hype and the higher transfer fee," said Matthäus told Sky Germany (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).

Jamal Musiala is targeting a return to action for Bayern Munich before the end of 2025. Musiala suffered a fractured fibula and a dislocated ankle in a challenge with Gianluigi Donnarumma during Bayern's defeat to Paris Saint-Germain at the Club World Cup in July. Bayern confirmed he would be absent for a minimum of four months and would require surgery immediately. The Germany playmaker recorded 21 goals and eight assists in all competitions for Bayern last season.

"It wasn't an easy decision," Musiala confessed. "I still have a lot of love for England and a lot of my closest friends are from there. But it was a decision that me and my family made together."

Jamal Musiala will be sidelined for the foreseeable future with a severe injury and is expected to wear a protective shoe for around six weeks.

Mendes stated, "It was a bad injury. We feel very sorry for him. He's one of the best players and we hope he comes back stronger."

A Stuttgart spokesperson says Nick Woltemade is expected back in VfB training on July 28 and will take part in the pre-season camp in Rottach-Egern with his teammates.

Luis Diaz is reportedly set to leave Anfield for Bayern Munich, with a deal now agreed as the German club accelerates its pursuit for attacking reinforcements after Jamal Musiala's injury.
