Neuer doubtful against Leipzig: Germany keeper Urbig on standby – Musiala still out

Manuel Neuer could miss Bayern's top game against RB Leipzig, in which case Germany goalkeeper Jonas Urbig is likely to play again. Jamal Musiala is still not training with the team.

Bayern Munich may again be without Manuel Neuer for Saturday's Bundesliga top game against RB Leipzig (18:30 CEST). “Manu didn't train yesterday. We have to see today how he feels and what the situation is,” coach Vincent Kompany said on Friday. It concerns his foot, “not the thigh or the shoulder”, and it “won't take that long either”.

If Neuer is out, Jonas Urbig is likely to start in goal. He already deputised for Neuer in the 3-3 Champions League draw at Viking Stavanger. Under national coach Jürgen Klopp, Urbig kept goal for Germany in early October in the Nations League games against Serbia (2-0) and in Greece (0-0).

Germany international Jamal Musiala remains absent. “Everyone else trained except Jamal,” Kompany said.
