Jamal Musiala still gets messages about his decision to play for Germany instead of England and takes it as a compliment that fans are frustrated that he is not representing their country.
The 19-year-old is considered one of the greatest prospects in world football having flourished for European giants Bayern Munich since breaking through in 2020.
Musiala joined the perennial Bundesliga champions from Chelsea the previous year and also spent time in the Southampton youth set-up after his family moved from Germany to England when he was seven.
The midfielder predominantly represented the Young Lions at youth level, going on to feature for England Under-21s before last year confirming he would play for his country of birth.
