[edit] Profile
Ottl started playing soccer for the Munich football club SV Nord Lerchenau (1991-1996).[1] Since 1996 he played for different youth teams of the FC Bayern Munich. In 2002 Hermann Gerland (the trainer of the Bayern Munich II team) nominated him to play in the Regionalliga (third division). As Ottl was one of the leaders of the third division team, he was given the chance to play even for the Bundesliga team. Ottl now is the sixth finished product of the Bayern youth set-up currently featuring in the senior squad after signing professional forms on July 1, 2005, a first full-time contract for the youngster thus following in the footsteps of Bastian Schweinsteiger, Owen Hargreaves and company. The sole Munich-born player in the squad apart from Philipp Lahm and Christian Lell has his feet firmly planted on the ground, naming his initial goals as "learn, train hard and make a substitute appearance every now and then." The versatile defensive midfielder will continue to amass match practice with the reserves where he has been a regular for two seasons and collected third division south championship honours in 2004. He scored his first goal against FC Kaiserslautern.[2]
