Bayern Munich talent Cassiano Kiala has sustained yet another injury – this time in the abdomen/hip area – playing for Germany U-19.

In the match against against Sweden, Kiala had to be subbed off in the second half of the Euro qualifier which ended 2-1 to Germany. 

It marks another bitter setback for the 17-year old who had just made his comeback from a serious ankle injury in the summer.

The severity of the centre-back's new injury remains unclear for now, but tests conducted in the coming days may reveal more. 

At the end of last February, the Bayern prospect suffered an unfortunate syndesmotic ligament tear at the Algarve Cup.

The injury sidelined him for several months, and only in August, Kiala was finally able to rejoin team training and showcase his skills.

He already made his Bundesliga debut in December 2025 in the victory against 1.FC Heidenheim showing how highly he is rated.
