The start of the season for Borussia Mönchengladbach is particularly dramatic. Last in the Bundesliga, the Fohlen started with six defeats in six matches. However, on Friday, the club coached by Alexander Blessin finally won its first victory against Stuttgart. A 3-2 success which bears the seal of Waël Mohya. Scorer and author of an assist for Shuto Machino, the young attacking midfielder proves that he is the key man of his team. Author of 3 goals and 1 assist in the 8 matches he played this season, the native of Mettmann is slowly establishing himself as a starter at 17 years old. The season of consecration for him.
The new phenomenon of the Bundesliga
Arriving at the age of 8 at Borussia Mönchengladbach, Waël Mohya is a prodigy with great precocity. Technically gifted, with a low center of gravity, ease with the ball, ambidexterity and real efficiency, he quickly won over everyone on the Borussen side. At 16 years, 9 months and 28 days, he logically became the youngest player in the history of Borussia Mönchengladbach. A valuable joker last season (2 goals and 1 assist in 17 matches), he now takes on a whole new dimension.
“He manages the role of Borussia’s great hope wonderfully. He’s incredibly well-behaved, from a great family, and of course we’re keeping an eye on how he handles this situation. That doesn’t worry us. He is a role model for all those who come after him, showing them how to keep their feet on the ground.said sports director Rouven Schröder in the show Doppelpass on Sport1. At the same time, the leaders of the German club are trying to extend him since his contract ends in June 2028.
The four German big names are on the case
“We are in contact with him, his parents and his agent. Waël is perfectly serene and feels, so to speak, like a young Poulain. But one thing is clear: he will not play his whole life at Borussia Mönchengladbach. We cannot escape the need to generate transfer surpluses. It’s not always what the fans want to hear.added Rouven Schröder. And precisely, this situation is pushing several big clubs to position themselves. According to Sky Sport GermanyBayern Munich is particularly under the spell of the player.
However, the Recorder is not alone since Borussia Dortmund, Bayer Leverkusen and RB Leipzig are also placed. A file which has little chance of succeeding this winter, but which could be one of the big subjects of the summer. German U21 international, Waël Mohya is also being courted in the selection since Morocco has been trying to convince the dual national for several months. “There was contact, yes. But I can’t say more. I haven’t made a decision yet and I’m taking my time.” he confided last March in an interview for Kicker. The Waël Mohya phenomenon is taking on another dimension in Germany and everyone is under its spell.
