Bayern Weighs Urbig Start vs. Atalanta as Medical Decision Nears

His availability hinges on concussion protocols requiring a symptom‑free session followed by independent neurological approval.

Overview

  • Coach Vincent Kompany said Jonas Urbig trained normally today and that a final call will be made tomorrow based on medical advice.
  • Sport1 reported Urbig passed tests with good results but felt discomfort on certain landings, keeping his status conditional under UEFA rules.
  • Sky Germany indicated a clear tendency for Bayern to start Urbig against Atalanta, with formal clearance still pending.
  • If Urbig is not cleared, 16-year-old Leonard Prescott is ready to step in after receiving special permission to work in the evening, Kompany said.
  • Manuel Neuer is targeting a return after the international break and Sven Ulreich is out with an adductor issue, leaving Bayern short on senior goalkeepers.
