The full picture

Bayern Munich assistant coach Aaron Danks reported that Jamal Musiala and Aleksandar Pavlovic have returned to training after injury, according to Bulinews. Danks stated that Musiala has rejoined the group, but Saturday's game against Mainz comes too soon for him. Pavlovic was also involved in training, but his fitness level needs to be assessed. Manuel Neuer trained again and is expected to be ready for the game.

Danks indicated that Musiala and Luis Diaz are progressing in their recovery, but a return date is uncertain, as reported by Bulinews. They will train individually the following week and rejoin full team training when the national teams return. Danks emphasized that there is no deadline for their return. The decision on their readiness will be made later.

Danks also mentioned that some players might be rested due to a congested schedule, with Alphonso Davies being a potential candidate, according to Bulinews. Davies needs a break due to his explosive playing style. The decision on who will be rested will be made on the day of the game. The team is expected to play in their usual style with potential rotations and different player combinations.
