Jürgen Klinsmann correctly predicted Maximilian Mittelstädt’s success from 4 years ago.

Maximilian Mittelstädt is impressively shining in the shirt of the German national team ahead of Euro 2024. Legend Jürgen Klinsmann had seen the special talent of this left-back many years ago.

Maximilian Mittelstädt, the 26-year-old left-back of VfB Stuttgart, is becoming the hottest name in German football right now. Maxi Mittelstädt made a strong impression in the recent 2 friendly matches of “Die Mannschaft”, contributing greatly to the 2-0 victory over France and the 2-1 victory over the Netherlands. Mittelstädt even scored an important goal in the “Oranje” match despite making a mistake earlier.

Maximilian Mittelstädt’s brilliance probably surprised many people, but not Jürgen Klinsmann. From 4 years ago, when he was still coaching Hertha BSC, this famous coach rated Maxi Mittelstädt as a “special talent, potentially worth over 20 million euros”. Although he has not reached that valuation, Maxi Mittelstädt’s impressive performance in the Stuttgart and national team shirts shows that Klinsmann was right.

Coach Julian Nagelsmann is also particularly impressed with Maximilian Mittelstädt, calling him “a completely normal player, extremely likable, friendly and always happy”. According to data analysis, Maxi Mittelstädt is among the top 4 best left-backs in Europe right now.

Now, Maxi Mittelstädt is aiming for a spot in the German squad for Euro 2024 at home. If he continues to maintain his form as he is now, Mittelstädt’s transfer value will certainly skyrocket after the tournament. Jürgen Klinsmann indeed has a “good eye” for spotting this gem early on.

Let’s wait and see how Maximilian Mittelstädt shines at Euro 2024. Perhaps the 26-year-old Mittelstädt will become the brightest star of “Die Mannschaft” and make history for German football!
