Euro 2024: He stands out – Lothar Matthaus names best player of the tournament

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 finished 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.”
