Miro Muheim - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Named to bench Muheim (calf) is on the bench for Thursday's match against Algeria.

Impact Muheim had missed the past two games due to a calf injury but has returned for the knockouts, as the defender is an option off the bench. He entered the field in their opener, so there is a solid chance he sees the field as a replacement. That said, he did have a rough outing that saw him commit an own goal for a draw in their opener, so his confidence will be a bit of a question.

Should be available for R32 Muheim trained fully with the squad on Friday, marking his return from the calf issue that had previously limited him to individual sessions, according to SRF.

Impact Muheim should now be considered an option for Switzerland's upcoming round of 32 fixture, having previously been restricted to solo training while his recovery progressed. The defender's full participation in training Friday is an encouraging sign after a rough stretch that included an own goal and the injury that followed in the group stage opener.

Trains individually again Monday Muheim (calf) is only training individually and remains in question for Wednesday's match against Canada, according to Tobias Wedermann of Blick.

Impact Muheim is still on the road to recovery as he heals from a calf injury, with the defender once again only allowed to train individually. This does raise some questions around if he can play on Wednesday, although the Swiss Football Association has heavily denied that he will miss out on the rest of the tournament. That said, Wednesday's game could still be too soon, a rough spell of play for the defender who only featured as a substitute in the 89th minute in their opener before scoring an own goal and picking up an injury.

Impact Muheim had been ruled out of the match against Bosnia and Herzegovina with a calf issue and does not appear fully recovered yet. Switzerland will hold one more collective training session Monday in San Diego before flying to Vancouver, with a final session scheduled Tuesday ahead of their decisive group stage clash against host nation Canada.

Ruled out Thursday Muheim (strain) is ruled out for Thursday's clash against Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Impact Muheim has been unable to recover from the muscle injury sustained in training, confirming his absence after being unable to train for two days heading into a crucial fixture that Switzerland cannot afford to lose following the opening group stage draw. His unavailability removes a depth option at left-back for the coaching staff, with Ricardo Rodriguez continuing as the undisputed starter in that position. Muheim's situation will be monitored closely ahead of Switzerland's remaining fixtures in the group stage.

Questionable for Thursday Muheim is questionable for Thursday's match against Bosnia and Herzegovina due to a muscle injury, according to Kicker.de.

Impact Muheim had a nightmare in Switzerland's opening World Cup match when scoring an own goal and may be out for their next contest, as the defender suffered an injury in training. This would leave the team without a bit of depth in the defense, especially after he already featured in the last game. He has been unable to train the past two days, so his deployment is questionable, only likely to make the bench even if he is deemed fit.

Late own goal Muheim generated an own goal in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Qatar.

Impact Muheim came on as a substitute for Ricardo Rodriguez late in the second half of Saturday's 1-1 draw with Qatar, entering the match with Switzerland holding a 1-0 lead and seemingly on course for a winning start to their World Cup campaign. However, the left-back endured a nightmare introduction to the tournament when Boualem Khoukhi attacked a stoppage-time delivery into the box, with Muheim's attempted defensive intervention deflecting the ball past a helpless Gregor Kobel and into his own net. The unfortunate own goal gifted Qatar a dramatic equalizer and their first World Cup point, silencing the Swiss supporters at Levi's Stadium and turning what looked like a comfortable victory into a frustrating draw.

Returns to bench Muheim (ankle) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Leverkusen.

Impact Muheim has been included in the squad after returning to full training for the first time following a three-game absence, with assistant manager Loic Fave's encouraging words translating into a cautious bench role rather than an immediate return to the starting lineup after just one session back. The left-back has been a near ever-present figure for Hamburg this season, starting all but one of his 28 Bundesliga appearances while tallying four assists, 41 chances created, 149 crosses and 62 tackles, and his presence among the substitutes is a welcome development ahead of a summer in which he will be hoping to secure his place in Switzerland's squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. His return to the starting lineup is expected to follow naturally once the ankle issue has fully settled.

Back in full training Muheim (ankle) is back in full training and should be an option for Saturday's season finale against Leverkusen, according to assistant manager Loic Fave. "He looked good. It would...

Impact Muheim looks set to return from a three-game absence, and if that's the case, he could return to a starting role right away. If healthy, Muheim should be a lock to make Switzerland's squad ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup as well. He has started in all but one of his 28 Bundesliga appearances, tallying four assists, 41 chances created, 149 crosses, 52 corners, 62 tackles, 27 interceptions and 59 clearances. He provided strong two-way value throughout the season.

Out against Freiburg Muheim (ankle) is ruled out for Sunday's clash against Freiburg.

Impact Muheim has been unable to earn a place in the squad despite the encouraging signs that had emerged from his training as a late call, with the initial expectation that he would miss the rest of the season ultimately proving correct as Sunday's fixture comes too soon in his recovery. His absence is a blow for Hamburg heading into the penultimate game of what has been a crucial campaign for the Red Shorts, with Bakery Jatta set to retain the starting spot in his place. His situation will be monitored closely ahead of the final fixture of the season as the club assesses whether he can play any part before the campaign draws to a close.

Trains, late call for Sunday Muheim (ankle) is a late call for Sunday's match against Frieburg, according to manager Merlin Polzin. "For Miro, it will still be tight with regard to the squad for Sunday; today...

Impact Muheim was thought to be out for the rest of the season, but could now return Sunday, as the defender is a late call after training. This is huge news for the club, as he is a regular starter when fit, although they may be cautious after the injury. Even if he is an option, expect him to only earn limited time.

MAY 8 • ROTOWIRE

Syndesmosis tear ends season Muheim (ankle) has been diagnosed with a torn anterior syndesmosis in his right ankle following an injury sustained during Saturday's clash against Bremen and is set to miss the re...

Impact Muheim picked up the injury in a duel with Leonardo Bittencourt and thorough examinations confirmed the worst, ruling out one of Hamburg's most important players for the final stretch of their Bundesliga campaign. The Swiss international had been an undisputed starter this season, logging 27 starts across 28 Bundesliga appearances and contributing four assists, 41 chances created, 52 corners and 62 tackles before his season was cut short. Bakery Jatta is expected to step into his spot as Hamburg push through the final games of what has been a crucial campaign for the Red Shorts.

Ban over Muheim is no longer banned and is an option moving forward for his club.

Impact Muheim is back in the mix after he was suspended for a game, seeing a straight red card last time out. He is likely to return to his starting role on the left flank as he returns to play, starting in 26 of his 27 appearances while notching four assists and five clean sheets.

APRIL 12 • ROTOWIRE

Sent off Saturday Muheim was sent off in the second half of Saturday's match against Augsburg.

Impact Muheim was shown a straight red card in the 64th minute after bringing down an opponent as the last man back on defense. Muheim will miss next week's match against Stuttgart through suspension.

Leader in crosses, tackles Muheim crossed three times inaccurately and made seven tackles (winning five) during Saturday's 3-2 loss to Dortmund.

Impact Muheim was active on both sides of the ball leading Hamburg in both crosses and tackles during Saturday's defeat. The wing-back has combined for a chance created, 14 crosses and 11 tackles over his last three appearances but hasn't had a goal involvement since January 10th.

MARCH 21 • ROTOWIRE

Eight crosses Saturday Muheim recorded eight crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 1-1 draw against 1. FC Koln. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 96th minute.

Impact Muheim recorded eight crosses Saturday, his most in a match since Feb. 7. Despite that volume he only managed one accurate cross and one chance created, so it still wasn't his best performance. He also made two clearances in his full 90 minutes of action.

MARCH 16 • ROTOWIRE

No longer suspended Muheim has served his Bundesliga suspension in Wednesday's loss to Bayer Leverkusen and is eligible to play agin in upcoming fixtures.

Impact Muheim was a regular starter on the left wing before his ban, so he should regain that role for the rest of the campaign, limiting Giorgi Gocholeishvili's activity. Muheum could be a two-way contributor with set-piece crosses complementing his defensive production in most games.

MARCH 4 • ROTOWIRE

Picks up ban Muheim is set for a one-game suspension due to yellow card accumulation.

Impact Muheim is set for the sidelines for a match, set to miss out against Leverkusen on Wednesday. He will then return later in the week against Wolfsburg on Saturday, with William Mikelbrencis or Giorgi Gocholeishvili as replacements while he is out.
