(Dan Tri) – Jamal Musiala, 17 years old, just became the youngest player to score for Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga in an 8-0 victory over Schalke 04 in the opening match of the `Gray Tigers` this morning (January 19).
Jamal Musiala became the youngest Bayern Munich player to score in the Bundesliga with a goal in the 81st minute to seal an 8-0 victory over Schalke 04 this morning (September 19).
Jamal Musiala scored for Bayern Munich at the age of 17 years and 205 days
Musiala only made his debut for Bayern Munich’s first team in June, coming on as a substitute for Bayern Munich in a 3-1 win over SC Freiburg in the Bundesliga.
This potential attacking midfielder joined Bayern Munich from Chelsea’s youth academy in the summer of 2019, to replace club legend Thomas Muller.
In early June, Musiala also scored his first two goals for Bayern Munich’s youth team in Germany’s third division, 3 Liga.
Although Musiala is only 45 days short of the record set by David Alaba, his impressive achievement has been widely shared on Bayern Munich’s social networking sites.
Joined from Chelsea’s training facility
Despite Chelsea’s desperate efforts to keep Musiala at Stamford Bridge on a long-term contract, the Stuttgart-born youngster signed for Bayern Munich in 2019 on a five-year contract.
He has followed the trend of young players in England leaving the UK for Germany in search of first team football, including Jadon Sancho and Reiss Nelson.
British or German player? Although born in Germany, Musiala once played for the Three Lions at youth level.
He then continued to appear in the U16 team, scoring three goals and two assists in nine matches.

Notably, he also played twice for the German U16 team
However, a potential dispute between the England team and the German team could arise in the near future as this promising talent has also played twice for the German U16 team.
Super reserve
On 3 June, Musiala made his professional debut against Preußen Münster in the third round of Liga – coming off the bench in a 3–2 win.
