Jamal Musiala has told FourFourTwo that he's thought about winning a Ballon d'Or.
The 20-year-old has been a revelation ever since moving to Bayern Munich in 2019, becoming the youngest-ever Bayern player in the Bundesliga, Bayern's youngest goalscorer and the Champions League's youngest goalscorer of both English and German nationalities.
Though Musiala comes across as far older than his years – and a humbleness to his demeanour that makes him a likeable presence – he tells FFT that he's not afraid to aim high in his career and that he's already pictured himself lifting the ultimate individual accolade.
“I’d be lying if I said I haven’t imagined what it might be like to win the Ballon d’Or one day,” he says.
“But that won’t happen by itself. I need to work hard and keep developing if I want to even be in the conversation.”

With Musiala one of the most exciting talents in the Bundesliga right now, our chat with the starlet turned to another player who had featured for England's youth teams before lighting up German football: Jude Bellingham. Musiala says he's actually friends with the Borussia Dortmund star – but that they have a healthy rivalry.
“Jude and I are close friends and always will be,” he says. “But we’re rivals, too. We say a quick hello before the game – a nod in the tunnel – but then it’s down to business. He wants to win. I want to win. Everything else goes out of the window for 90 minutes.”
