Jamal Musiala’s serious injury may have an impact on Paul Wanner’s future at Bayern. After its dislocation (removal) of the ankle and a broken fabric, Musiala was successfully operated on, but the 22 -year -old German international will be missing for months, although a precise date for a return to the soccer field is not yet foreseeable. As the “kicker” reports, it was actually intended to give the 19-year-old a third time or to give it permanently, but with a buyback option.
After the bad news at Musiala, these plans have been thwarted for the time being, it is said. A loan is currently off the table after Borussia Mönchengladbach and the HSV are said to have registered as other interested parties. VfB Stuttgart had previously withdrawn during his efforts. Werder Bremen should also keep an eye on Wanner because the offensive midfielder could meet Horst Steffen again there. In 2023/24, Wanner had loan in the SV 07 Elversberg under him in the 2nd league, in 2024/25 he was allowed to prove himself at 1. FC Heidenheim under Frank Schmidt, but lost his regular place in the second half of the season after a promising start.
In Munich, the Wanner, who was committed from the Ravensburg youth in 2018, has a contract until 2027 and could now receive an unexpected chance. According to reports, the junior national player under Bayern coach Vincent Kompany may show himself and focus on the preparation.
Wanners market value is estimated at 18 million euros-previous career best. With this evaluation, he surpasses five seasoned players in the current Bayern contingent, who was now part of the team 2025/26: Jonas Urbig (12 million), Bryan Zaragoza (12 million), Raphaël Guerreiro (8 million), Manuel Neuer (4 million) and Daniel Peretz (3 million).
