'Anything is possible' - Jamal Musiala hopes Celtic's Nicolas Kuhn makes German team

Bayern Munich superstar Jamal Musiala is delighted with Nicolas Kuhn's progress at Celtic as the two prepare to meet again in the Champions League tomorrow night.

The 21-year-old has been in excellent form for the Bundesliga giants this season, netting 15 goals and assisting eight in all competitions.

Bayern lead 2-1 on aggregate following last Wednesday’s first leg play-off at Celtic Park.

Speaking ahead of the second leg at the Allianz Arena on Tuesday night, Musiala said: “[Kuhn] played really well against us – I played a couple of games when I was 16 when he was still at the club.

"He was a big character already then, and we spoke and played games together.

"I'm happy to see him doing well."

Kuhn, who spent two years in Bayern's academy, has scored 17 and assisted 12 in 36 appearances for Celtic so far this season.

Musiala also commented on Kuhn's potential international career with Germany.

The former Chelsea youth player said: "I think anything is possible.

"Julian Nagelsmann [Germany manager] has plenty of players to choose from – it's a decision for Julian to make."

There has been some speculation surrounding Kuhn's long-term future at Celtic in recent weeks, with reported interest from the likes of Brentford, Brighton and Newcastle.
