Anthony Musaba. Not many football fans had heard of his name. That changed overnight in an instant. A true football fairytale. Because the wing attacker from the Kitchen Champion Division will move to AS Monaco this summer.
Top clubs from Germany, Italy and Spain have turned to NEC for Musaba in recent months. The 19-year-old talent from Beuningen even visited Borussia Dortmund with his family.
The choice ultimately fell on Monaco, which transfers more than two million euros to the club from the first division. “You don’t get a chance like that twice, you have to take it,” Musaba says from the principality on Friday evening.
So you didn’t hesitate?
“No, certainly not. I am only 19, but if you as a young player get the chance to prove yourself in such a competition, you should not hesitate about such an offer. I am mentally ready, have faith in it myself and know I can do it. “
Why did you choose Monaco?
“That was in the plans they have with me. They were very clear to me, my agent and my family. I discussed it all well with that. In recent years Monaco has attracted many young players who also get a chance in the first. That’s important to me. “
