Lothar Matthaus |
Bayern Munich legend, Lothar Matthaus, has named former Manchester United midfielder, Marcel Sabitzer, as the best player at Euro 2024 so far.
Sabitzer has played a key role for Austria at Euro 2024.
The Borussia Dortmund star helped his nation finish top of Group D ahead of France and the Netherlands.
He will hope to lead Austria to victory when they play Turkey in the last-16 on Tuesday.
“My player of the tournament so far is Marcel Sabitzer,” Matthaus wrote in his column for German outlet Sport.
“I saw him live in Berlin during Austria’s 3-2 win over Holland.
“His speed, his lightness, his finesse, the way he uses his teammates, the way he works in the back, the speed with which he plays forward – I have hardly seen him like this in Dortmund.
“Sabitzer stands out in this impressive Austrian team.”
