According to "Bild", Musiala resumed training with the ball for the first time. Davis, who was watching from the sidelines, danced with excitement, and the latter will resume joint training soon.
The media revealed that at 13:19 local time on Monday, Bayern star Jamal Musiala stepped into the Sebena Street training ground. The Germany international was dragging behind him a black XXL-sized stereo on wheels. Rehabilitation coach Simon Martinello brought the ball cart.
Before starting 40 minutes of recovery training, Musiala politely asked teammate Jonas Urbich (22 years old/3 appearances this season, 15 appearances in total for Bayern) who was also at the training ground whether it was appropriate to play loud music. Later, accompanied by deafening rap music, Musiala resumed training with the ball for the first time in more than four months after suffering a serious injury.
The Bayern frontcourt core suffered a fibula fracture and multiple ligament injuries in his left ankle during the Club World Cup quarter-finals against Paris Saint-Germain (0:2) on July 5. After undergoing surgery in Minau, Musiala returned to training two and a half weeks ago after weeks of recovery at the training centre. After completing relaxed running training and preliminary coordination exercises, he is now finally training with the ball 128 days after his serious injury.
Muciala easily removed the ball from the air and passed it back to Martinello. The training also included running drills, preliminary short sprints and a single-leg jump over a small yellow obstacle - a load test for the surgically operated left leg.
It is worth mentioning that good friend Alphonso Davis (25 years old/torn cruciate ligament in his right knee 7 and a half months ago) came to the training ground in casual clothes shortly after the training session started. The Canadian international danced to the beat of rap music played on the XXL speakers played by Musiala on his mobile phone and cheered for his teammates who were resuming training. The left-back was in high spirits and his powerful beat echoed through Bayern's training ground.
Davis is about to return to team training and begin preliminary training with his teammates, but Musiala still needs more time. There is still hope within the club that he will return within the year, but it is still more likely that the Germany international will not get his first chance until January.
