The current FC Sevilla man, who could very well return to Germany via a buyback clause, noted that that his time just outside the FCB starting XI had taught several important lessons.
Since moving to FC Sevilla, Nianzou still finds himself facing stiff competition for a spot in Julen Lopetegui’s starting XI. A little more exposure nevertheless helped him earn his first call-up to the French U21s. The defender seemed unfazed by the topic of competition, again emphasizing that he had learned about how difficult it can be to crack the starting lineup whilst playing for the German champs.
“My time in Germany shaped me”, Nianzou reiterated, “I have a bit of the German mentality now; never to let up until the end. Look at Thomas Müller for example, he never gives up! That’s Germany. Every day you train with champions.”
Nianazou’s comments are interesting in the context of reputable reports suggesting that Bayern have a buyback option built into the deal that sent him to Sevilla. The former PSG academy man may well end up returning to the Bundesliga at some point. In his comments to L’Équipe, the player appeared amenable enough to the idea.
“Nagelsmann taught me a lot,” Nianzou noted, adding with something of a chuckle, “[his staff] won’t get angry with you, but they will get tired of you. You’re forced to raise your level. Nagelsmann taught me when to take risks in transition play and why.”
