MUNICH: Bayern Munich attacking midfielder Jamal Musiala is set to miss upcoming games for his club and the German national team with a hip injury.
Bayern said Friday that Musiala would be “out for the time being.” Musiala had been included in Germany’s squad on Thursday but the team confirmed he would miss upcoming Nations League games this month against Bosnia-Herzegovina and the Netherlands.
Stuttgart winger Jamie Leweling could make his debut for Germany after he was called up to replace Musiala.
Musiala played the entire second half of Bayern’s 1-0 loss to Aston Villa in the Champions League on Wednesday, the first loss of new coach Vincent Kompany’s time in charge. Bayern leads the Bundesliga ahead of playing Eintracht Frankfurt on Sunday.

PSG ordered to pay around 60mn euros to Mbappe in wage dispute
- PSG in turn had demanded Mbappe pay them 440 million euros
- The labor court said the final figure of between 60 million and 61 million euros
PARIS: Paris Saint-Germain were ordered to pay their former forward Kylian Mbappe up to 61 million euros ($71.8 million) in unpaid wages and bonuses by a French labor court on Tuesday.
France captain Mbappe, who left PSG in June 2024 to join Real Madrid, had been claiming over 260 million euros in total from his former club.
PSG in turn had demanded Mbappe pay them 440 million euros.
Mbappe, 26, also claimed the Parisian club applied the wrong French legal classification to his contract, but that was rejected by the court.
The labor court said the final figure of between 60 million and 61 million euros was made up of 55 million euros in unpaid salary and around six million euros in holiday payments.
PSG did not immediately say if they intend to appeal.
Lawyers for Mbappe said in a statement they “noted with satisfaction the decision given by the labor court.”
“It re-establishes a simple truth — even in the professional football industry, labor laws apply to everyone,” the lawyers added in a statement.
The French club had said they were basing the figure they were claiming in part on a botched 300m-euro transfer to Gulf club which Mbappe refused in June 2023.
Mbappe left for Real Madrid on a free transfer when his contract expired the following summer.
He insisted he made no agreement in 2023 to waive any payment from the club.
Mbappe initially filed a complaint in June over the way he was treated by PSG at the start of the 2023-24 season.
Mbappe argues that he was sidelined by PSG and made to train with players the club were trying to offload after refusing to agree a new contract.
It is a widespread practice that in France prompted the players’ union to lodge a complaint last year.
Mbappe was not invited to take part in PSG’s 2023 pre-season tour of Asia and missed the first game of that season but was later recalled to the team after holding talks with the club.
After seven seasons with PSG he joined Real Madrid where he earns a reported annual salary of 30m euros.
Mbappe scored 256 goals in 308 games for PSG but the club won the Champions League for the first time last season following his departure.
