The Bundesliga has been a one-horse race for the past decade. Bayern Munich have continually won the title. However, a key part of the league has always been the evolvement of youngsters.
Indeed, several German clubs are among the foremost in nurturing teenagers. Despite Bayern hogging the limelight, these young starlets have been at the forefront of their respective teams’ journey.
With the 2022-23 season on the horizon, there is no doubt more such gems will be unearthed. Therefore, FootTheBall looks at 10 of the best young stars to watch out for over the coming year.
Jamie Bynoe-Gittens (Borussia Dortmund)
The 17-year-old forward joined Borussia Dortmund in 2020, but this could be the year he truly takes flight. Bynoe-Gittens’ progress was massively curtailed by the COVID pandemic, followed by serious injury issues.
