Bayern Munich youngster Jamal Musiala has been handed his first call-up to the England Under 21s squad after impressing in the Bundesliga and Champions League.

Aidy Boothroyd has rewarded the 17-year-old with a place in his squad for the upcoming matches against Andorra and Albania after he scored his second goal of the league season for Bayern against Eintracht Frankfurt.

Born in Stuttgart, Musiala then moved to London and came through Chelsea's academy, before heading back to Germany with Bayern in 2019.

He has represented both England and Germany at youth level, but England are keen to tie him down to their international set-up as he continues to impress at the highest level.
