Excellent performance! Carl: I hope to play every game, I go to the gym every day to practice upper limbs

Hupu August 23: Genius Leonard Carr (17 years old) made his Bundesliga debut in Bayern Munich's 6-0 victory over RB Leipzig on Friday. After he came on the bench in the 69th minute, he immediately showed some bold offensive moves, which left a deep impression. He also assisted the 5-0 goal.

Surprisingly, the offensive player also attracted people's attention after the game with some refreshing and confident remarks. When Bistro asked the teenager’s personal goals for the new season at Bayern Munich, Carl answered bluntly: “I want to lead the team to the championship. I hope to get playing time in every game. But I have to work hard for it because this is Bayern Munich, one of the top teams in the world, so it’s not easy.”

This is unusual for such a young player – but Carl’s confidence is logical! Last season, he shined for Bayern Munich U17 and U19 teams, scoring 34 goals and contributing 11 assists in 30 games. Due to his outstanding performance, Vincent Kompani has allowed him to regularly train with the first team in the 2024/25 season, and even brought Carl to the FFC World Cup in the United States this summer.

Despite the rapid rise of the young man, he did not become complacent or even became arrogant. Instead, he continued to train hard, saying, "I go to the gym every day to exercise my upper limbs because I am small and I noticed that my opponent is getting stronger and stronger."

Carl's jersey number also reflects his ambitions. After the contract renewal, he inherited the No. 42 jersey from Jamal Mushara. Carl explained: "I know Mushara's ability. He is my role model. So I chose this number."
