Bayern Munich attacking midfielder, Jamal Musiala has finally spoken on why he snubbed the Super Eagles of Nigeria for Germany, claiming he feels comfortable with the Europeans.

The 19-year-old is one of the hottest youngsters in Europe and has been doing well with Bayern Munich since he broke into the first team.

Born in Germany to a Nigerian father and German mother, Musiala had the chance to play for the three-time African champions, but he chose the country of his birth.

According to the report by Soccernet, Musiala explained that he actually thought about playing for the Super Eagles, but his current environment made him change his mind.

Musiala on representing Germany

“I could have played for Nigeria because it crossed my mind, and I thought about it well. I had good talks with Nigeria and Germany. So it really just came down to me and where I’d feel the most comfortable. So I decided to go with Germany.''

Speaking to Ayodeji Ismail, who is the head of the Sports Writers Association in the Kwara State, he told Sports Brief that Musiala would have struggled to break into Super Eagles first team.

''He made a good decision by choosing Germany, because he would even find it hard to get active playing time in the Super Eagles. I don't see him starting ahead of Iwobi, Etebo and Aribo.''
