According to DFB sports director Rudi Völler, Bayern Munich’s young star Jamal Musiala (21) and Leverkusen’s top talent Florian Wirtz (21) could win the title of World Footballer at some point in their careers. “Both have what it takes to do it,” said the 64-year-old in ZDF’s “Aktuelles Sportstudio”. This would enable them to become successors to superstars Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
The former DFB team boss praised the qualities of the two national players, who caused a sensation at this year’s European Championship as the magical football duo “Wusiala”. “Both have a golden future,” explained Völler. Next Saturday (6.30 p.m./Sky) Musiala and Wirtz will face each other in a direct duel in the top Bundesliga match between Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen.
