In the first match of the 2014–15 season against Kaiserslautern Weigl, only being 18 years old, was named captain. He thereby is the youngest captain in the history of 1860 Munich.[3] After the second match of the season Weigl was fined and suspended to the second squad along with his teammates Vitus Eicher, Daniel Adlung and Yannick Stark. The four players had been out drinking late at night and were overheard talking negatively about the club.[4][5] Weigl was acquitted from his captain duties and succeeded by Christopher Schindler.[6]
Borussia Dortmund
After the 2014–15 season Weigl transferred to Borussia Dortmund, where he signed a contract until 2019.[7] Julian Weigl made his official Dortmund debut on Saturday 15 August in a 4-0 victory against Borussia Mönchengladbach.
International career
Weigl started to represent Germany at youth levels during the qualification for the 2014 European Under-19 Championship, which was eventually won by Germany.[8] Since August 2014 he is part of the U-20 squad.[9] On 13 October 2014 Weigl scored his first international goal in a 1-1 tie against the Netherlands U20.[10] Weigl made his debut for the German U-21 team team on September 3, 2015, in a friendly match against Denmark.
