In the meantime, the use of Bayern captain Manuel Neuer at the start of the Bundesliga was questionable. Now coach Julian Nagelsmann commented.
Missed training on Wednesday
“He’s doing a lot better,” said Nagelsmann about his captain: “If things continue like this, he’ll definitely be able to play.” On Wednesday, Munich announced that the captain was unable to take part in team training.
However, Leon Goretzka, who is still unavailable after knee surgery, Kingsley Coman, who has been suspended, and striker Eric-Maxim Choupo-Moting will be absent. Mathys Tel, signed by Stade Rennes, could be in the squad for the first time against Frankfurt. According to Nagelsmann, the 17-year-old striker is now eligible to play.
