Bild and Sky Germany report that 17-year-old Maycon Cardozo will be part of Bayern Munich’s senior squad for the first time when the German champions host Borussia Mönchengladbach in the Bundesliga on Friday.

Earlier this week, Bayern announced a contract extension for the Brazilian winger, who has impressed Vincent Kompany and his coaching staff.

After standout performances with the U19s, Cardozo made his first appearances for Bayern’s reserve team towards the end of February.

If he’s fortunate, he could even make his first-team debut at Allianz Arena on Friday night.
