Fortuna Koeln II Overview

Jamal Musiala has undergone a scheduled surgical procedure following his return from World Cup duty with Germany. The Bayern Munich superstar is now set to begin a tailored recovery programme as the Bundesliga giants prepare for the upcoming campaign.

Alphonso Davies has opened up on the physical and emotional toll of Canada’s World Cup exit, describing the tournament as one of the most difficult periods of his professional life. Despite high expectations for the co-hosts, the Bayern Munich star was largely reduced to a spectator role as injury curtailed his involvement on the global stage.

For some football fans, the summer is the part of the calendar that they look forward to the most - and that's not just because it's filled by a World Cup every four years! Rather, it's because the end of the season means only one thing: It's time for transfers! The 2026 window is once again proving to be busy, with some huge names making big-money moves before deadline day on September 1.

Dayot Upamecano has dismissed speculation linking Michael Olise with a move to Real Madrid, insisting the Bayern Munich winger is staying put. The France defender's comments come amid reports suggesting Los Blanco could make a record-breaking €223 million bid for the 24-year-old.
