Musiala collapses during match for second time
Bayern Munich midfielder Jamal Musiala says he is being treated for a "neurological dysfunction" after collapsing during a match for the second time in a four-day period.
Bayern Munich midfielder Jamal Musiala has collapsed during a match for the second time in a four-day span. The 23-year-old appeared dazed after collapsing six minutes into the game against Heidenheim on Tuesday. A similar incident occurred during Saturday's friendly win over RB Leipzig. Musiala later revealed on Instagram that he has been diagnosed with temporary, brief, but easily treatable absence seizures caused by a neurological dysfunction.
Despite the scares, the player remains optimistic and is receiving excellent medical care. Bayern sporting director Max Eberl confirmed that the team is aware of the situation and Musiala will discuss the matter further. This marks the second collapse within a short time frame for Musiala, who missed the beginning of last season after breaking his ankle at the 2025 Club World Cup.
