"According to a report from Tz journalist Philipp Kessler, 16-year-old center-back Filip Pavić, 20-year-old right-back Vincent Manuba, and 18-year-old left-back Deniz Ofli are all expected to be a part of the game day squad in leg two at the Allianz Arena."
"This could represent a great opportunity to work in some youngsters as Bayern Munich not only holds a 6-1 lead on aggregate so far, but also has a laundry list of players missing due to injuries or suspensions."
"Pavić has emerged as one of the brightest young talents on the campus this season and could be a player whom the club is looking at as a foundational piece for the squad to build on as the team transitions from one generation to the next."
Bayern Munich's academy is producing talented young players who may contribute to the senior team's Champions League fixture against Atalanta. Three academy prospects are expected to be included in the game day squad for the second leg at the Allianz Arena: 16-year-old center-back Filip Pavić, 20-year-old right-back Vincent Manuba, and 18-year-old left-back Deniz Ofli. Bayern's significant 6-1 aggregate lead and multiple player absences due to injuries and suspensions create an ideal opportunity to integrate these youngsters. Pavić has distinguished himself as one of the academy's most promising talents this season and represents a potential foundational piece for Bayern's squad as the club transitions between generations.
