Athletic career

society

Jamal Musiala was born in Stuttgart as the son of a German, his father comes from Nigeria . Because his mother was studying, the family moved to Fulda in East Hesse when Jamal was still a toddler. At the age of five he started playing club soccer at TSV Lehnerz in the north-east of the city in 2008 , just as the district club was preparing to replace the traditional club Borussia Fulda as the sporting number 1 in the city. At TSV Lehnerz Jamal Musiala was considered an exceptional talent right from the start and his head has always been ahead of his peers and therefore always played one age group higher, according to his coach Branko Milenkovski.

The boy was seven years old when the family had to move again in autumn 2010. The reason for this was that the mother was studying abroad in Southampton in the south of England . After initially unsuccessful club search, Jamal Musiala took part in a holiday camp and was observed by scouts from Southampton FC , who accepted him into their youth academy. Since the seven-year-old scored regularly for his team at the city championship, he was noticed at Chelsea , among others . After completing the semester abroad, the family initially returned to Fulda and then finally moved to England in the spring and accepted the offer of the reigning English champions and cup winners.

After the now eight-year-old "overwhelming" visit to the 1-0 home win of the professional team against bottom line Wigan Athletic at Stamford Bridge and four goals by the boy in the first game for his new club, he quickly settled in with Chelsea. In the following years, Musiala went through the various youth teams of the club, was successful with them at tournaments and was called up to the English U15 national team at the age of 13 . His 15th birthday was just over two months ago when he made his first appearance in the U18 Premier League. Ultimately, personal reasons and the approaching Brexit were decisive for the fact that the now 16-year-old wanted to leave the island with his mother and siblings in the summer of 2019. There were several inquiries across Europe, the choice fell on FC Bayern Munich .

There Musiala had to wait some time for permission to play and missed the first four game days of the U17s in the B-Junior Bundesliga . The team, trained by world champion Miroslav Klose , started the season a bit bumpy without him. At the end of August, the attacking midfielder made his first appearance for his new club. He scored the 1-0 against newly promoted SC Freiburg , the final score of the match was 4-1. In the following five victorious games he scored four times, once in November, before he was pulled up to the U19s in the A-Juniors Bundesliga in December and also played two appearances in the UEFA Youth League , in which the team was already in the round of 16 at Dinamo Zagreb failed. In February he was allowed to train for the first time with the Bundesliga team trained by Hansi Flick , but continued to play for the A-Juniors. For this, he completed a total of eight missions without scoring before the game operations came to a standstill in March 2020 due to the corona pandemic and the season in the youth sector was finally no longer continued.

In the third division , however, games were resumed from the end of May with ghost games and the now 17-year-old Musiala was substituted on in several games by Bayern amateurs from the beginning of June . On his third appearance, he scored both goals for a 2-0 win against FSV Zwickau . Shortly afterwards, the offensive player under Hansi Flick also made his first short appearance in the first team when he was substituted on in the Bundesliga home game against SC Freiburg in the final phase of the game. At 17 years and 115 days, he is Bayern's youngest Bundesliga debutant. In total, he came to eight appearances for the amateur team that season, two of them from the start, and was third division champion with the team. The season was not over for the professional team of FC Bayern, however, as the Champions League season , which was interrupted in the spring, was continued at the beginning of August with the second leg of the round of 16 against Chelsea , in which he sat on the bench. The game was won 4: 1, so Bayern was qualified for the final tournament in Lisbon . Musiala was there too, was part of the matchday squad for the quarter-finals against FC Barcelona , but was no longer considered in the further course of the competition that was victorious for FC Bayern.

National team

His first race for a national team had Jamal Musiala age of 13 in December 2016 when, in central England Burton upon Trent in a game the English U15 national team against Turkey as a substitute came to the field and the gateway to 5: 1 final score achieved . Another game for the U15 came two days later, but the next one only a year later when the now 14-year-old scored all three English goals in a 3-1 win against the Netherlands . In the summer of 2018 he played a game for the English U16 team , but was not in the squad in the following games. Since Musiala, as a minor dual citizen, is also eligible to play for Germany, he played two games for the German U16 team in Saarbrücken and Pirmasens in October . In the same month, however, he returned to the English U16, played a tournament with them in France and played a total of nine games for the British U16 team by April 2019, in which he appeared three times as a goalscorer. Musiala has been playing for the English U17s since September 2019 with two goals in nine games to date.
