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

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.

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.

Neuer sidelined by thigh tear as Urbig handed final 2025 Bayern audition

Manuel Neuer
December 2025

Bayern confirmed captain Manuel Neuer has suffered a muscle tear in his right thigh, sustained late in the 2-2 draw with Mainz, ruling the 39-year-old out of their final match of 2025 and reopening the door for summer recruit Jonas Urbig to start away at Heidenheim. Neuer, who grimaced through the closing stages as headers from Kacper Potulski and Lee Jae-sung punished rare defensive lapses, underwent tests in Munich on Monday that indicated several weeks out. The winter break limits the damage, with Bayern expecting him back for January as Urbig gains a third league start.
