Bayern Munich star Jamal Musiala was full of admiration for a young Arsenal player’s performance over the weekend. This player, 20-year-old Mika Biereth, had been on loan at Motherwell in the Scottish Premiership since August. Biereth had made a promising start with Motherwell, scoring and assisting on his debut. However, a knee injury had kept him sidelined until this recent return.
In his comeback match against Ross County, Biereth made a significant impact. He came off the bench for the final 15 minutes of the game, promptly winning a penalty for his team, which he successfully converted. Additionally, he provided an assist, helping Motherwell salvage a point after being down 3-1. Jamal Musiala, the Bayern Munich player, was highly impressed with Biereth’s performance and expressed his praise on Instagram.
Musiala’s social media post was captioned with “Nice to be back!” Biereth’s post received supportive comments from fellow players Tino Livramento and Brooke Norton-Cuffy, and Musiala joined in with two heart emojis. The fact that Musiala has connections to Arsenal is worth noting, as the club has been linked with a potential move for him as Bayern tries to secure a new contract with the young German talent.
While Arsenal keeps an eye on Musiala’s situation, they also have promising young talents emerging within their ranks. Biereth, despite having made only three appearances for Motherwell, has managed to score two goals and provide two assists during his time in Scotland. This positive showing follows his loan spell at RKC Waalwijk in the Netherlands the previous season. Arsenal signed Biereth from Fulham in 2019, and his performances suggest a bright future ahead.
