Niklas Sule

While young Niklas Sule came to the limelight only after his move to Bayern Munich last summer, he was already doing well for Hoffenheim before sealing the switch to Bavaria.

Much like Brandt, Sule too played for the Die Mannschaft in the Confed Cup and much like the winger, did quite well. He scored on his Bundesliga debut for Bayern, capping off what was an impressive outing at the back.

With Holger Badstuber now at Stuttgart and Bayern in need of depth at the back, Sule will be used by Carlo Ancelotti regularly and the big defender is expected to fulfil his promise too.

The Frankfurt-born 21-year-old has already appeared six times for the senior German side and a good showing this season can make him an excellent alternative to Mats Hummels and Shkodran Mustafi.
