'Southgate has been watching Musiala since he was 10' - England coach has been a long-term admirer of Germany & Bayern Munich teenager

 

The midfielder's former school team coach has been reflecting on the ex-Chelsea youngster's early years ahead of a huge Euro 2020 last-16 clash

Jamal Musiala's former sports teacher has revealed that Gareth Southgate has been watching the Germany teenager since he was 10 years old.

Musiala is currently featuring for Germany at the European Championship, having earned a place in Joachim Low's squad following an impressive breakthrough season at Bayern Munich.

The 18-year-old previously represented England at U15, U16, U17 and U21 levels, but chose to switch allegiances earlier this year, and is now hoping to feature for Germany against the Three Lions at Wembley on Tuesday.
