"Speaking to Maximilian Koch of Az (as captured by @iMiaSanMia), Jonathan Tah explained why he thinks Karl has proven himself at the highest level. If he continues this way, then I don't know what's stopping him from helping our [national] team. If he can do it at Bayern Munich, in the Champions League, then he has everything it takes to show it for the national team. Of course, it's the coach's decision. But I simply think he's doing a really great job right now, said Tah supporting Karl."
"A rare opportunity due to Jamal Musiala's injury turned into a dream debut for Lennart Karl. Having been a very promising academy talent, it was the pre-season friendlies that Karl showed what he could do with the senior players. Appearances in the Bundesliga and Champions League followed and the kid has not disappointed his coach. In both those tournaments, Karl has a goal involvement stat of 0.91 per 90 minutes. In the UCL alone, he has scored three goals in four games played."
Jonathan Tah signaled support for 17-year-old Lennart Karl's inclusion in the World Cup, citing Karl's performances for Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga and Champions League. A debut opportunity arose due to Jamal Musiala's injury, and pre-season friendlies previously showcased Karl's readiness. Karl averages 0.91 goal involvements per 90 minutes across the Bundesliga and Champions League and has three goals in four UCL appearances. Karl's pace, dribbling, passing vision, and finishing have driven his impact. The youth academy, Vincent Kompany, and Bayern management facilitated Karl's transition to the senior team. Further development is expected, but World Cup selection appears a natural progression.
