Nagelsmann: Only Doctors Can Prevent Musiala from Playing in World Cup

German national team coach Julian Nagelsmann has confirmed his intention to include Jamal Musiala in the squad for the upcoming World Cup, stating that only medical advice regarding long-term career risks could prevent the Bayern Munich star from participating. Musiala recently returned to action after suffering a complicated leg fracture last summer and missing recent international test matches due to stress symptoms. Despite concerns raised by former goalkeeper Oliver Kahn about the potential consequences of the injury, Nagelsmann emphasized that if doctors clear Musiala, he will play. The coach acknowledged that while Musiala may not start immediately due to fitness levels, he remains a crucial asset who can provide significant impact as a substitute. This follows Musiala's impressive recent performance for Bayern Munich, where he contributed to a victory against Real Madrid. Additionally, Nagelsmann addressed rumors regarding Thomas Müller's potential comeback, dismissing them as unlikely despite Müller's continued high-level play in Canada. The discussion highlights the strategic balance between player health management and competitive ambition ahead of the tournament in America.
