He told reporters: "When I jump onto his [Musiala's] lower leg while sprinting, weighing 100 kilograms, there's a high risk of something happening. I don't think he did it intentionally, but he also wasn't being considerate."

While Bayern are out of the lucrative Club World Cup, they will be more concerned about Musiala's injury. The German international is a vital player in Vincent Kompany's side and their chances of success next season, re winning trophies, will likely take a huge hit without him.
AFPWHAT NEXT?
Bayern and the club's fans will now keep a close eye on the extent of Musiala's injury in the coming days. The attacking midfielder missed the tail end of last season with a torn muscle and now he could be out for much longer.
