MUNICH: Bayern Munich could give 16-year-old keeper Leonard Prescott his debut in their Champions League round of 16 return leg against visitors Atalanta should Jonas Urbig fail to recover from a concussion, coach Vincent Kompany said on Tuesday.

Prescott, a Germany youth international, plays for the Under-19s and had to get special clearance to work in the evening as a teenager ahead of a potential start on Wednesday.
He is the only option should Urbig, who picked up a concussion in Bayern’s 6-1 first leg win in Italy last week, not be fit.
“Jonas trained normally today. The decision tomorrow will be a medical one,’ Kompany told a press conference. “If everything goes well then Urbig will be in goal. If not then we will have to find another solution.
