Former Chelsea youngster Jamal Musiala is set to be handed a full Germany call-up – dashing Gareth Southgate’s hopes of picking the Bayern Munich wonderkid.
The 17-year-old, who left Chelsea for Bayern in 2019, has been in stunning form for the German champions.
Having become their youngest ever player last season, Musiala is now a regular – having appeared 20 times this term for Hansi Flick’s side.
Born in Stuttgart, but having gone to school in Croydon between the ages of seven and 16, and with a Nigerian father and German mother – Musiala is eligible for all three countries.
He has featured for both at youth level, but most recently turned out for England’s Under-21 side last November.
According to The Times, however, Musiala is leaning towards choosing Germany and Joachim Low is set to give him a debut in the World Cup qualifiers in March.
