Sebastian Deisler Profile



Sebastian Deisler is the most promising young talent in German football, experts and fans alike have agreed for a very long time now. Unfortunately, the stress is still on the 'promising' as the 25 year-old's career has been blighted by a series of setbacks which might have halted a lesser character is his tracks. The midfielder has had to battle career-threatening knee injuries, and lost half of 2003-4 to chronic depression. But the safe delivery of his first child opened a new perspective for the player, and he has completed an optimal pre-season programme for the first time ever. Bayern fans could be in for a rare treat as the spotlight falls on Deisler's undoubted talent in the future.
