Bayern Munich face a major blow with Jamal Musiala ruled out of their Champions League round of 16 second leg against Atalanta on Wednesday. The 23-year-old is struggling with an ankle issue sustained during the first-leg thrashing in Italy, and reports suggest his absence could extend further. This adds to the ongoing injury crisis for the Bavarian giants at a pivotal point this season.
Bayern Munich head coach Vincent Kompany has admitted that a sensational senior debut in the Champions League for 16-year-old goalkeeper Leonard Prescott is a possibility, though it is not the current plan ahead of the showdown against Atalanta. The Bundesliga giants are facing a major selection headache ahead of the 16 second-leg clash at the Allianz Arena, with injuries ruling out more senior options.
Ahead of FC Bayern Munich’s Champions League round of 16 second-leg match against Atalanta Bergamo, Vincent Kompany is considering not fielding two of Munich’s usual first-team regulars at all.
