German youth teams survive injury scare

German youth national teams have faced several personnel setbacks during the international break, but there are some positive developments regarding Bayern Munich prospect Cassiano Kiala. U-21 team will be without goalkeeper Mio Backhaus, forward Nicolo Tresoldi, and defender Hendry Blank due to injuries sustained during training.

Tresoldi and Blank suffered concussions and must sit out in accordance with the DFB’s concussion protocol, while Backhaus is also unavailable. U-21 head coach Antonio Di Salvo has called up goalkeeper Hannes Hermann and Hoffenheim forward Max Moerstedt to fill the gaps. Initially, there were concerns surrounding Bayern Munich's 17-year-old center-back Cassiano Kiala, who picked up an issue in his abdominal and hip area during a match against Sweden.

However, after further examinations, Kiala has been given the all-clear, with no injury detected, providing a welcome relief for Bayern and the young defender.
