Musiala Reveals Treatable Neurological Cause After Two On‑Field Collapses

Neurologists have diagnosed brief, treatable absence seizures and Bayern will assess his fitness for upcoming matches including the Supercup.

Overview

  • The Bayern midfielder collapsed twice during pre-season friendlies, first in the club's win over RB Leipzig and again four days later in a match at Heidenheim.
  • Musiala posted that specialists have diagnosed brief, temporary absence seizures caused by a neurological dysfunction and that he is receiving medical treatment.
  • Both incidents saw immediate on‑pitch care and the player was able to walk off under his own power after treatment in each match.
  • Bayern officials and sporting director Max Eberl say the club is aware of the diagnosis and will closely monitor Musiala as medical staff decide his availability for the Supercup.
  • The episodes come after a long rehabilitation from a fractured fibula and serious ankle damage last year, a history that increases scrutiny of his recovery and could shape short‑term management and playing time.
