   WHAT HAPPENED?
   
   The prodigious talent of Bayern Munich is excited for the upcoming European
   Championship as he will carry the No.10 on his back. The national team
   promotion marks the culmination of a childhood dream, influenced by legendary
   players like Lionel Messi, Ronaldinho, and Neymar, all of whom have donned
   the prestigious number for their respective nations.

 * THE BIGGER PICTURE
   
   Musiala's first appearance in Germany's No. 10 shirt came during a friendly
   match against France in March. The 21-year-old midfielder was bestowed this
   honour amid a stellar season with Bayern, which he ended with 12 goals and
   eight assists across 38 games in all competitions, despite the team ending up
   trophyless.
   
   He played just nine minutes at the last European Championship, but made a
   significant impact during the 2022 World Cup. Although Germany's campaign
   ended in a disappointing group stage exit, Musiala’s performances were a
   bright spot, showcasing his potential as a future star for Die Mannschaft.

 * WHAT MUSIALA SAID
   
   In an interview with Sports Illustrated, Musiala opened up about the
   significance of wearing the No. 10 jersey for Germany. "The No. 10 is a great
   honor," Musiala said. "It has been a dream since I was a little kid. Whenever
   I saw Messi, Ronaldinho, or Neymar playing football with the No. 10 as a
   child, it was my wish to be able to wear that number one day.
   
   "So I am very proud that I can play for Germany with the No. 10, but I won’t
   let it go to my head. I will continue to play just as I did before with the
   No. 14 in the national team, or with the No. 42 at Bayern. It actually
   motivates me even more.”

   WHAT NEXT FOR MUSIALA?
   
   The No. 10 jersey is more than just a number in football - historically worn
   by some of the greatest footballers, including Pele and Diego Maradona. It is
   often associated with a team's most skilled and influential player. Musiala’s
   acquisition of this number reflects the German national team's faith in his
   abilities and potential, which he will hope to unlock when they open their
   Euro 2024 campaign against Scotland on June 14.
