Erblin Osmani becomes Bayern Munich’s second-youngest Bundesliga player
Erblin Osmani made his Bundesliga debut in Bayern Munich’s 4-0 victory over Union Berlin and in doing so became the club’s second-youngest player in Germany’s top flight after Paul Wanner.
At 16 years and 306 days, Osmani replaced Leon Goretzka in the 87th minute to place himself behind Wanner (16 years, 15 days), becoming the latest Bayern youngster to make their premiere under Vincent Kompany.
Watch: Highlights of Bayern's win over Union
Fellow teens Filip Pavić and Deniz Ofli - who are yet to make their league debuts - featured in the 4-1 second leg win over Atalanta in the UEFA Champions League round of 16.
Osmani, a German youth international, featured for Bayern’s U17 and U19 teams this season before being named in Kompany’s matchday squad for the first time on Saturday.
With Bayern's eyes set on retaining their title and games coming thick and fast on three fronts, Osmani and Co. will seek more minutes for the Bundesliga's runaway leaders before the end of the campaign.
