I’m happy that he has obviously found the right environment in Udine for steady development and I hope he stays healthy and in shape. In my opinion, he has what it takes to play a fundamentally important role as a creative player for Serbia’s N11. But of course, part of it is that he continues to develop at club level. I always like to compare Samardzic with Szoboszlai, both are very similar types of players in my opinion. Musiala and Wirtz are fine dribblers with huge offensive power and creative force, but Samardzic would have brought the element of extraordinary shooting technique and standard strength that Wirtz and Musiala don’t have. See Samardzic’s free kick a few months ago at the U21s.
It’s a shame for the DFB, but well, Musiala and Wirtz are a consolation that is second to none
Good luck to Lazar Samardzic. Always nice to see when a Berliner makes his way into professional football
