Good news for FC Bayern! Manuel Neuer and Leon Goretzka got over their corona disease well and were able to start team training on Tuesday as hoped. Jamal Musiala is also fit.
From Bayern’s point of view, Manuel Neuer and Leon Goretzka’s corona infection came at “the right time”. If everything goes according to plan, the two players will not miss a single game in Munich. A week after their positive corona test, both were able to return to team training on Tuesday and thus start preparing for the Leverkusen game.
On Friday evening (8:30 p.m.), at least Manuel Neuer should almost certainly be in the starting XI. Julian Nagelsmann will not want to be without his captain in the important match against the Werkself. In addition, it was only out for a few days. The fitness should not have suffered too much. With Goretzka, on the other hand, it remains to be seen whether it will be enough for the starting eleven right away. As a central midfielder, the 27-year-old obviously has to handle a much larger workload and be 100 percent fit. There is a high probability that Marcel Sabitzer will start, even if Goretzka should not feel any after-effects.
Jamal Musiala also has Good Nights. According to Sport1, the youngster, who ended the game against England with leg cramps, is fit and ready for the landmark Leverkusen match.
