Maximilian Arnold
Maximilian Arnold is a German midfielder and captain of VfL Wolfsburg, born in Riesa on 27 May 1994. He developed with SV Strehla and SC Riesa before joining Dynamo Dresden’s academy in 2006. Arnold moved to Wolfsburg in 2009 and helped the club win two Under-19 Bundesliga titles, in 2011 and 2013. He made his first-team debut against Augsburg in November 2011, becoming Wolfsburg’s youngest first-team debutant, and scored his first senior goal against Hoffenheim in April 2013.
