Vincent Kompany explained why Musiala remained on the bench for the Bundesliga match against Heidenheim.

Details: According to the coach, the decision was influenced by the busy match schedule.

Quote: "We had matches against PSG, Dortmund, and Leverkusen. In the game against Bayer, we played with ten men for 70 minutes. Today, we can really use fresh players. We need a good balance between energy and physical fitness.

We’ve been careful with Jamal at the start of the season due to injuries. We don’t need to take too many risks. We have fresh players who are ready to play. And Jamal is always ready to help us," Kompany said, as quoted by Bayern & Germany.

Reminder: Earlier, it was reported that Bayern and Musiala had agreed on a record salary of 25 million euros per year. Later, the president of the Munich club made an intriguing statement about the player’s new contract.

This season, the midfielder has played 18 matches across all competitions, scoring ten goals and providing four assists.
