Musiala isolating after testing postive for COVID
Bayern Munich has confirmed star attacker Jamal Musiala has tested positive for coronavirus, and is now isolating.
The Germany midfielder played the full 90 minutes of Bayern's dramatic 2-2 Klassiker draw with Borussia Dortmund on Sunday (AEDT), which left it third in the Bundesliga, now four points behind surprise leader Union Berlin.
But Musiala would now appear to be a major doubt for the midweek Champions League match against Viktoria Plzen.
The club statement said: "The FC Bayern forward is doing well and is currently isolating at home."
Musiala is the latest in a series of Bayern players to contract COVID-19 over the past month.
Manuel Neuer and Leon Goretzka were withdrawn from the Germany squad, before Joshua Kimmich and Thomas Muller also later returned positive tests.
