Veteran goalkeeper Manuel Neuer will return to the ranks of Bayern Munich during their trip to face Borussia Mönchengladbach, today in the 16th round of the German Football League, but his fellow midfielder Jamal Musiala will be absent from the squad, according to what their Belgian coach Vincent Kompany confirmed yesterday. Neuer (38 years old) has not played since he suffered a broken rib in early December in the 16th cup final against Bayer Leverkusen, when he collided with Dutchman Jeremy Frimpong outside the penalty area, as a result of which he received his first red card in the 866th match of his storied career. He then missed three league matches and one in the Champions League.
“Fortunately, Manu will return,” Kompany (38 years old) said. As for Musiala, who suffered from a cold, he will miss the match, but “he will return very soon.”
The former defense rock added that veteran striker Thomas Muller will replace Musiala in the playmaking position.
