Bayern's Jamal Musiala Diagnosed With Neurological Disorder After On-Field Collapses. Bayern Munich midfielder Jamal Musiala has revealed he has been diagnosed with a neurological disorder after collapsing on the pitch twice in four days. The 23-year-old collapsed six minutes after coming off the bench during Bayern's 4-2 friendly victory over Heidenheim. The Germany international required medical attention before being helped from the pitch and had also collapsed against RB Leipzig four days earlier. In a post on Instagram, Musiala said he had been diagnosed with "temporary, brief, but easily treatable absences" caused by a neurological dysfunction. Musiala explained that the condition can lead to episodes such as those he experienced against Leipzig and Heidenheim. He told followers the episodes could appear frightening but said he was receiving the best medical care and remained "very optimistic.” Musiala added that doctors had ruled out any further health risks following his diagnosis. The midfielder returned last season after six months out with a fractured ankle and later represented Germany at the 2026 World Cup.
