Bayern promote ex-Chelsea wonderkid Musiala to first-team squad for Gladbach clash

Former Chelsea youngster Jamal Musiala is set to feature on the bench for Bundesliga champions-elect Bayern Munich this weekend as another young English talent looks set to break through in Germany.

Bayern have very high hopes for the 17-year-old attacking midfielder, and are aiming to blood youngsters in the final weeks of the Bundesliga season with another league crown looking all but wrapped up.

The reigning champions are seven points clear of Borussia Dortmund in second with four matches to play, and a win over fourth-placed Borussia Monchengladbach on Saturday will be enough should Dortmund lose at Fortuna Dusseldorf in their earlier kick-off.
