BUNDES - Bayern Munich: where did Tanguy Nianzou Kouassi go?

The competition is pretty tight in the defensive department of Bayern Munich since Dayot Upamecano, Niklas Süle and Lucas Hernandez meet expectations. However, the poor match between the two French and Benjamin Pavard (positioned in the center) against Borussia Mönchengladbach in the 5-0 defeat raised questions.

But what becomes of Tanguy Nianzou Kouassi? Julian Nagelsmann has just given some indications in comments collected by Sky Germany.

According to the 34-year-old technician, the former Paris Saint-Germain must still work to be at the starting level: "Tanguy is a great talent with a lot of potential, but in the end, he must reduce his error rate, in training sessions or in matches. He still makes that little mistake too many. He's a very good central defender in terms of football and sometimes it's not that good, because you trust yourself a lot. This is a good thing in itself, but it also leads to mistakes from time to time and it is difficult in this position."

Not alarmist, Julian Nagelsmann is happy to be able to count on Tanguy Nianzou Kouassi and hopes that the latter will correct his small defects of concentration: "In the end, it is a question of being as serious as possible, but all the same to find a good one. middle so as not to lose courage. It takes a little time and development in these areas to get to 100 percent. But he's still a player I think about very strongly. He struggled last year and this year as well, I am fully aware of that. But we're going to work with him and try to teach him precisely these things so that he can play reliably on the pitch. With great reliability, it will provide a real alternative. ”

The outbreak will still take some time for Tanguy Nianzou Kouassi and there is no reason to worry yet. However, he will have to progress to hope to shake up the hierarchy.
