**Rotterdam, Netherlands** – Bayern Munich star Jamal Musiala makes his starting XI comeback tonight in a crucial Champions League match against Feyenoord Rotterdam. The 21-year-old midfielder, sidelined for two weeks with the flu, is declared fully fit and ready to lead the German giants in their first major European clash of the year.
The match, taking place at 9 PM CET, is vital for Bayern’s Champions League ambitions. A win would put them in a strong position to secure a top-eight finish and avoid the playoffs. Feyenoord, managed by Vincent Kompany, are also aiming for a direct qualification to the knockout stages with two wins.
Interestingly, Leroy Sané, a regular starter in recent matches, is benched for tonight’s game. Kingsley Coman and Michael Olise fill the winger positions. Musiala himself expressed confidence in his fitness after recovering from his illness.
Bayern’s starting lineup sees Manuel Neuer in goal, with a midfield featuring Joshua Kimmich and Leon Goretzka. The team’s attacking line is set to feature the likes of Harry Kane, alongside Coman and Olise. The match is live on DAZN. Meanwhile, Bayern’s sporting director, Christoph Freund, is reportedly considering a move for Florian Wirtz, and SPORT BILD has revealed other transfer news involving the club, including updates on Leroy Sané.
