#7 Felix Passlack – 19 years-old, right-back

The heir to Piszczek

Borussia Dortmunnd have an uncanny habit of producing some really good young talents from their academy. Marco Reus, Mario Gotze and Nuri Sahin are just some examples of the talent that Dortmund’s academy has developed over the years.

And one of the latest in line seems to be Felix Passlack. The young right-back, who is only 19-years-old, is touted to be the natural heir to Lukas Piszczek at the Westfalenstadion while some claim that he is going to be even better than the Polish full-back.

Whether or not he reaches that level can only be revealed by time. Right now, what can be said is that he is among the best talents in the world. As a right-back, he is quick, an intelligent passer and can put in accurate crosses for his team-mate.

However, he still has to improve the defensive aspect of his game – and that is something time can do for him.
