German-Ghanaian sensation Justin Diehl is turning heads at VfB Stuttgart with his electric speed and growing impact as a super-sub.
Head coach Sebastian Hoeneß sees the 20-year-old as a key asset off the bench, particularly in high-tempo Bundesliga clashes like the upcoming duel against Union Berlin.
“He’s returned in excellent shape after his shoulder injury,” Hoeneß shared in the pre-match press conference. “Right now, he thrives when the game opens up, where his speed can shine in larger spaces.”
A former FC Cologne standout, Diehl’s pace isn’t just quick—it’s elite. “He’s the fastest player in our squad,” Hoeneß praised. “His future is incredibly bright, but it’s about ensuring his stability and consistent game time for accelerated development.”
While Diehl’s current role is as a substitute, Hoeneß hinted at a starting XI appearance in the not-so-distant future. “I’d have no hesitation starting him. But for tomorrow, he’ll remain an impact player off the bench.”
With discipline, hard work, and humility, Diehl is poised to carve a lasting niche in the Bundesliga, showcasing his undeniable potential.
