Maz Farookhi is joined by French football specialist Julien Laurens and German football analyst Rafa Honigstein for this week’s Euro Leagues discussion. The panel examines a difficult period for Julian Alvarez at Atletico Madrid and considers whether Barcelona’s apparent withdrawal could give Arsenal an opportunity to sign him.
The conversation then turns to Jamal Musiala’s medical condition after he collapsed during two consecutive Bayern friendlies last week. The guests explore how the club managed to keep the issue confidential for so long and whether it could affect Musiala’s career in the future.
Schalke head coach and former Plymouth Argyle manager Miron Muslić joins the podcast to discuss his club’s promotion to the Bundesliga, the arrival of fellow Bosnian Edin Džeko, and Loris Karius’ impressive career revival at Schalke.
To conclude, Julien and Rafa assess which teams are most capable of competing with Bayern in domestic football this season.
