Why Sinan Kurt Is the Bayern Munich II Player Most Likely to Make the Grade

When Sinan Kurt left Borussia Monchengladbach for Bayern Munich at the end of the 2014 summer transfer window, it was a bitter blow for the Fohlen.

Gladbach had done everything they could to keep their most prized academy graduate, but the player would not be denied his dream of a move to the Allianz Arena and was ultimately allowed to leave to put pen to paper on a four-year contract.

Things haven't gone entirely to plan for Kurt since his transfer. The 19-year-old managed to make a 45-minute debut for the senior team against Hertha BSC in April, but he otherwise spent almost the entire season with the under-19s.
