In Frankfurt, Tel was allowed to wear a Bayern jersey for the first time.
Coach Julian Nagelsmann (35) replaced him after 65 minutes for Serge Gnabry (27).
The child prodigy was allowed to present himself in the service of the German record champions for almost half an hour – and did a good job for a teenager, as

"He's playing very grown up.
It was something new for him, for us it was exactly what we want: to bring these guys up,” said sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic (45). , if you dare to do something in training – but then you also see a difference to the game.”

What the football coach thinks: Tel should live out his “juvenile carelessness in a positive sense” during training.
"He can try to outplay two players in a row and try it out.
This is important.
Unfortunately, you lose a lot of these dribblers in the youth, because all coaches only want combination football.
And nobody is allowed to dribble anymore.
And nobody can be in love with the ball anymore.
That's what he is: a dribbler who loves the ball,” explains Nagelsmann.
