In the summer of 2020, FC Bayern succeeded in a supposed transfer coup with the obligation of Tanguy Nanzou. Despite all advance laurels, however, the central defender has still not prevailed almost two years later at the German football record champion. Finally, the young Frenchman increased, but his future is more open than ever.

For a long time, Tanguy Nanzou had been waiting for Bayern at this moment and suddenly he was there: a corner of the right, a short sprint, a powerful header, and finally was the right luck, which made sure that Union-Keeper Andreas Luthe Nanzous Ball from a short distance could not ward off enough.

The interim-marked interim 2-0 was not only the preliminary decision at the later 4: 0 success against the Berlin last weekend, but above all the long-awaited premieres for Nianzou in the jersey of FC Bayern. And at the same time, it was also a kind of liberation for the 19-year-old French, for which the first 21 months in Munich did not go as hoped.

At its obligation in early July 2020, Nanzou had been presented by Hasan Salihamidzic as “one of the largest talents in Europe”. The Nianzous chief even tied daring that the French U-national player at FC Bayern “make a great career” and “an absolute reinforcement” is.

That in the evaluation not only the red-white club goggles Salihamidzics made for warm words, proved that today’s manunited team manager Ralf Rangnick at that time declared “Sky”, Nanzou was “one of the biggest defensive talents” he had ever seen. The central defender is at the latest in one or two years regular players of the Munich.

Meanwhile, the period named by Rangnick is almost expired, the prophecy did not occur so far. Currently, little suggests that Nianzou may be serious in the near future serious hopes of a punch at FC Bayern. The fact that he was allowed to go to the field against Union Berlin last weekend at the beginning of the field, the defender of the current injury dizers in the Bavaria-defensive to owe.

His place in the start eleven totled him anyway everyone in the club. Nanzious stony entry was also tightly interwoven with great injury spoken. Two-thirds of his first season in Munich he missed due to thigh problems and because of a muscle bundle. As soon as he got back on the square, he had to fit again due to an emergency brake and a subsequent Rotsperre.

And so Nanzou put the hopes for his second year. But here, too, it was mostly enough for short missions. Too great was the competition in the internal defense.

FC Bayern: Nagelsmann praises Nianzou

So far, the praise of his coach Julian Nagelsmann did not help, the Nianzou called “headball-strong defender, even in the offensive” and the 19-year-old certified an “incredible aggressiveness” and “winner mentality”.

Because Nagelsmann rather rely on Routinians like Lucas Hernández or Niklas Süle, despite the praise, and does not seem to plan with Nianzou in the Defense Center in the coming season.

“When Slee goes, there will be a place behind there. We will therefore already do something in the domestic defense,” the coach last announced a newcomer. Whether Nianzou, whose contract is dated until 2024, a third year on the bank of the record champion is open with a view to a threatening stowage, is open.

At the beginning of February, France talent changed its agent, is now advised by Vadim Vasilyev, the former Vice President of AS Monaco. The Maltese-Russian businessman is well networked and may be looking for a club, where Nianzou might be bounded for a lending season.

According to “FussballTransfers.com”, a dozen clubs from Ligue 1 are in parate to take Nianzou under contract for a year. There you can find the 1,91 meter defender best, the end of 2019 for Paris Saint-Germain celebrated its debut in France’s highest gaming class before he went to Munich in the summer.

In any case, it seems clear that the Bayern responsible persons Nianzou have not yet abandoned. Nagelsmann certified the defender repeatedly not only “great potential”, but also a “very good character”, but also stressed that the collection of game practice in FC Bayern is only possible to a limited extent.

“You have to show the player where he has the opportunity to develop. As a total club we are asked to carry out structural measures that go in the right direction to help players,” said Nagelsmann and already interpreted one possible lending.

Boateng: Nianzou is header

In the distance, Nianzou could work on his constancy and stop volatility errors that the young Frenchmen overrun again and again. The fact that Nanzou has long-term stuff for the tribal force of Bayern, his former teammate Jérôme Boateng believes.

The 19-year-old has “to become a huge potential, a top defender,” said Boateng in the Munich club magazine “51”. “He’s fast and duel, he recognizes situations. He is even header when I was at his age,” the former DFB kicker swarmed from Bayern talent.

The chance that Nianzous hits against Union was not the last for the Munich, is therefore quite realistic. When more goals will follow, but is still completely open. On the “big career” promised by Salihamidzic in FC Bayern, the defense talent must currently wait (further).
