          U.S. international Julian Green has been included in Bayern Munich's first team for the Bundesliga this season.

          Green, 21, has played for Bayern in the Champions League but has not yet made his debut in the German league with the club.

          He spent the 2014-15 season on loan at Hamburg and last year with the Bayern reserves, but has now been given a chance to compete for a spot after shining in the International Champions Cup this summer.

          Finding playing time with the German champions won't be easy, however, as the attacker will be behind Robert Lewandowski, Thomas Muller, Douglas Costa, Arjen Robben, and Franck Ribery in ‎Carlo Ancelotti's squad.
