Manuel Neuer is reportedly close to returning from his calf injury, with hopes rising that he could be available for Bayern Munich’s Champions League tie against Real Madrid. His comeback would be a major boost after another interruption in a season shaped by recurring muscle issues. Recent reporting in Germany says Neuer has resumed availability discussions and could be an option around Bayern’s next run of matches, though there has not been a new official Bayern announcement confirming full clearance. His workload is expected to be managed carefully even if he is deemed fit enough to return.

Manuel Neuer has delayed talks over his Bayern Munich future as he assesses how his body responds after his latest muscle injury.

March 2026

Julian Nagelsmann named a 26-man Germany squad featuring debutants Lennart Karl and Jonas Urbig, while also bringing back several established internationals. The selection reshapes the group ahead of warm-up matches against Switzerland and Ghana, with Jamal Musiala among the notable absentees. Nagelsmann promoted two Bayern talents straight into the senior setup and restored players including Antonio Rudiger, Kai Havertz and Deniz Undav. Musiala was left out due to injury concerns, while several names from the previous squad also dropped away as Germany begin another evaluation phase.

Bayern Munich
March 2026

Bayern Munich do not appear to have suffered major new injury blows after Aleksandar Pavlovic and Tom Bischof both came off during the 4-1 win over Atalanta. Early signals from inside the club suggested both changes were precautionary rather than serious setbacks. Sporting director Max Eberl said he had not seen any dramatic medical concern after the match, while Pavlovic later said his issue was only minor hip flexor pain. Bayern may still manage their minutes carefully against Union Berlin before the quarter-final tie with Real Madrid.

Bayern Munich prospect Bara Sapoko Ndiaye is expected to miss three to four weeks after suffering a ligament injury in training. The setback interrupts an important early period for the teenager after joining the club in January on a provisional deal. The midfielder had arrived from Gambinos Stars Africa as part of Bayern’s Red & Gold partnership and was being assessed around the first-team environment. His absence could affect short-term development momentum, especially because competition restrictions already limit where he can play.

Bayern Could Turn to 16-Year-Old Prescott in Goal Against Atalanta

March 2026

Bayern Munich could hand 16-year-old Leonard Prescott a record-setting Champions League debut because of a severe goalkeeping shortage. With multiple senior keepers unavailable, the Under-19 starter has become a genuine option for Vincent Kompany against Atalanta. Manuel Neuer remains out, Jonas Urbig is recovering from concussion, and Sven Ulreich is also injured, leaving Bayern stretched in a key position. Prescott would need special clearance to play at night because of his age under German child protection rules.

Chelsea have reportedly made contact over a possible move for Kim Min-jae as they plan defensive changes this summer. The club are looking for a more experienced centre-back presence, with the Bayern Munich defender seen as a strong fit for that role. Reports say Chelsea have already explored the idea of bringing Kim to Stamford Bridge while Bayern continue to rotate their defenders. After an uneven spell in Germany and reduced league starts behind Dayot Upamecano and Jonathan Tah, the 29-year-old has emerged as a possible market opportunity.

Harry Kane was named on the bench for a second straight match as Bayern Munich continued to manage his recovery from a calf injury. Vincent Kompany again kept faith with his in-form alternative, signalling a cautious approach over Bayern’s key striker. Kane had already missed out on a start in midweek and was again held back as Bayern dealt with multiple absences across the squad. Injuries to Manuel Neuer, Jonas Urbig, Alphonso Davies and Hiroki Ito also forced Kompany into wider changes for the trip.

Davies Set for Faster Return After Bayern Injury Scare Against Atalanta

Alphonso Davies
March 2026

Alphonso Davies is expected to return sooner than first feared after limping off against Atalanta in Bayern Munich’s 6-1 win. Early concern over another significant injury has eased, with Canada coach Jesse Marsch indicating the defender could be back within weeks. Marsch said he spoke directly with Davies, who described the setback as less severe than a recent muscle issue. That assessment suggests Bayern avoided a major tear, and the current expectation is that the left-back will need only two to three weeks to recover.
