At 16 years and 268 days, Youssoufa Moukoko has entered even more in the annals of German football. Already will you tell me? Well yes ! The young Borussia Dortmund striker became the youngest Under-21 international in history by starting against San Marino (0-6, Euro Espoirs qualifiers). And it obviously did not stop there.
The German prodigy has indeed offered a double, becoming the youngest scorer in the history of the German team in this age category, and an assist. Just that. Not enough to disturb him, however, he who is already the youngest player and scorer in the history of the Bundesliga and the youngest player in the history of the Champions League for a few months.
Two new records and unlimited ambition
“I’m happy, of course. But I can’t buy anything with a record like this ”, he told the official website of the German Federation before continuing. “I no longer see a motivation to continue working hard to progress”. The boy is indeed a perfectionist. “There are situations that I could have played better. I want us to qualify as quickly as possible and be even more useful to the team ”, he blurted out.
The goleador with 19 professional appearances with the BVB in all competitions (3 achievements) knows that he is only at the dawn of a great career and that nothing has been acquired yet. “I haven’t accomplished anything yet. My path has only just begun ”, he concluded. If he confirms his excellent predispositions, Youssoufa Moukoko, under contract until June 2024, risks really doing very, very badly.
