Bayern Munich forward Jamal Musiala out of Stuttgart match due to injury

Dubai Dubai. Bayern Munich forward Jamal Musiala is injured and will be out of the squad for Saturday's Bundesliga match against Stuttgart. “He will not be in the squad,” Bayern coach Vincent Kompany said of Musiala on Friday. Musiala is out with a hip injury. The 21-year-old Musiala has not played since Bayern's 1-0 defeat to Aston Villa in the Champions League on October 2. Bayern announced two days later that the attacker “will remain out for the time being.”

Kompany said he is not sure whether French defender Dayot Upamecano will be fit for Stuttgart. If Upamecano fails to recover for Stuttgart, Eric Dier or Leon Goretzka could join Kim Min-jae in central defence. Last season's runners-up Stuttgart have had a mixed start this season, but Sebastian Hoeness The team defeated Borussia Dortmund 5–1 and are expected to be Leverkusen's biggest challenger again. Bayern are unbeaten in six Bundesliga games under Kompany and lead Leipzig on goal difference, who visit Mainz first on Saturday.
