Posting this because it just happened again. First time was on Saturday. Both times shortly after he came on as a substitute.
There must really be something seriously wrong; the first time, they said he had heatstrokeâwhich made sense, since it was 34 degrees that dayâbut when it happened again today, it was only 20. This is really concerning.
Max Eberl makes a cryptic comment following the collapse, saying: âJamal will speak about it in due course. We know what happened. (âŠ) Jamal will speak about it. Heâs in the changing room, getting changed and having a shower.â
Musiala with a Statement:
Das Wichtigste zuerst - mir geht es gut!
Ich bin besonders dankbar fĂŒr eure Nachrichten und euren Support!
Ich verstehe, dass sich viele von euch Sorgen machen. Diese Sorge möchte ich euch heute nehmen und euch dazu etwas erklÀren:
Es wurden bei mir temporĂ€r kurz auftretende, aber gut behandelbare Absencen festgestellt, welche auf eine neurologische Dysfunktion zurĂŒckzufĂŒhren sind.
Diese können zu den zuletzt vorgekommenen Momenten fĂŒhren, wie gegen Leipzig oder auch jetzt in Heidenheim.
Ich weiĂ, dass diese auf den ersten Blick scary wirken - fĂŒr mich sind sie aber aktuell Teil meines Alltags. Ich bin diesbezĂŒglich in bester medizinischer Behandlung und sehr optimistisch. Der FO Bayern und mein privates Umfeld sind immer an meiner Seite und unterstĂŒtzen mich auf diesem Weg.
Wichtig ist, es besteht kein darĂŒberhinausgehendes gesundheitliches Risiko. In enger Abstimmung und in regelmĂ€Ăigem Austausch mit den Experten ist es mein persönlicher Wunsch gewesen, mich der Herausforderung zu stellen und mit der Freigabe der neurologischen FachĂ€rzte mich weiter dem zu widmen, was mir bei der Genesung am meisten hilft: Einfach meinen Alltag zu leben und meiner Passion FuĂball zu spielen weiter nachzugehen. DafĂŒr habe ich die Verantwortung ĂŒbernommen. Ich habe insgesamt ein sehr gutes GefĂŒhl und bin auf einem guten Weg.
Was mir auf diesem Weg am meisten hilft, ist, mit meinem Team und eurem groĂartigen Support weiter Siege & Titel zu jagen.
Ich hoffe, ihr könnt mich damit besser verstehen. Gleichzeitig bitte ich um VerstÀndnis, dass ich das Thema weiterhin im Kreis meiner engsten Vertrauten, dem Club und den Experten halten möchte.
Translation of the important part:
I have been diagnosed with transient, brief but easily treatable absence seizures, which are attributable to a neurological dysfunction.
Google:
Absences are brief, sudden lapses in consciousness, usually lasting between 5 and 20 seconds, which indicate generalised epileptic activity in the brain. During an absence, those affected stare into space, do not respond when spoken to and often display a slight fluttering of the eyelids.
A close friendâs daughter was diagnosed with absence seizures a few years ago. It was understandably scary for the family until she completed the full workup and received a diagnosis. Fortunately, she responded very well to medication and hasnât had a breakthrough seizure in years.
I imagine finding the right dosage can be a bit more challenging for an elite athlete who expends so much energy on the pitch, but Iâm sure Musialaâs medical team will get that balance right.
The encouraging news is that, while the episodes are alarming for teammates, fans, or opponents who witness it, absence seizures themselves arenât typically causing him harm, and thereâs no reason to think he canât continue playing once his condition is properly managed.
Poor lad. It sounds very worrying for him and his family. I hope he finds a way to deal with it.

He looks like he is enjoying himself. Also about 10 years younger than when he last managed us.
