Kompany's comments suggest that Musiala is nearing a return to the pitch, but the coach is unwilling to pressure the Germany star into a comeback. Musiala has been absent from the team since collapsing in two preseason games due to a neurological issue. The 21-year-old has since revealed that he is experiencing treatable absence seizures.
Musiala's potential return is a significant development for Bayern, who are currently top of the Bundesliga table. The team's next match is against promoted Schalke on Saturday, and Kompany has hinted that Musiala could be an option for the game. However, the coach is prioritizing Musiala's health and well-being, stating that he doesn't want to put any more pressure on the player.
The next step for Musiala will be to continue his recovery and work towards a return to the pitch. Bayern's medical staff will closely monitor his progress, and Kompany will assess his fitness before deciding whether to include him in the squad for the upcoming match against Schalke.
