The serious injury to Jamal Musiala also shocked Lothar Matthäus. At the same time, the 64-year-old suggests two players who can replace Musiala.

“Maybe only half a year before Musiala comes back,” said Matthäus at RTL/NTV with a view to Müller, the 35-year-old world champion from 2014. The club legend that was sorted out after more than 750 competitive games “for Bavaria and he has not yet signed a contract. He is fit and could help immediately,” said Matthäus. “As a Bayern Munich, I would now approach Thomas Müller and suggest it. He doesn’t need to get used to it, and the fans would be happy.”
At Musiala, Matthew (“I’m shocked”) does not expect that the national player will return to the square this year after his serious injury from the quarter-finals of the club World Cup against Paris Saint-Germain (0: 2).
All the more, according to Matthäus, the Bavarian managers would have to increase the pace at the Stuttgart vertical start Woltemade. “Maybe that works with 50 to 60 million. Bavaria needs a central midfielder. Müller or Woltemade can play this Musiala position. That would fit,” said the 64-year-old.
