Bayern Munich defender Aznou is to join La Liga side Valladolid on loan until the end of the season and there is no buy-out clause in the deal, according to Sky Sports Deutschland. Aznu’s medical examination is expected to take place on Monday, marking the start of the formal process for the transfer.
Player Profile:
Name and age: Aznu, 18.
Position and nationality: Defender, Morocco.
Current club: Bayern Munich.
First-team appearances: Only 3 times for Bayern.
Valuation: In the transfer market, he is valued at 3 million euros.
Transfer Background:
Limited appearances: Aznu is unhappy with his lack of regular first-team appearances at Bayern. He is expected to leave during the winter transfer window in search of more game time.
Several Bundesliga clubs have already expressed specific interest in him. Meanwhile, some of Europe’s biggest clubs, such as Porto, Benfica and Juventus, are keeping a close eye on him.
Personal desire and prospects: Despite his desire to continue at Bayern, Aznu and his team have to consider the possibility of a loan or even a permanent transfer. In the Bayern first team, he has not been given enough opportunities to prove himself and does not see a clear future.
Reasons for leasing:
Coach promises not fulfilled: Similar to Arsenal’s previous concerns about Mathys Tell, Aznu does not want to leave Bayern, but coach Vincent Kompany has failed to deliver on his promise of playing time.
Africa Cup of Nations Goals: Aznu’s goal is to represent Morocco in this year’s Africa Cup of Nations, which is a big reason why he is eager to get more games. To show his best form at the Africa Cup of Nations, he needs more games to maintain his competitive level.
To sum up, Bayern Munich youngster Aznu is about to join Valladolid on loan, which is a good chance for him to seek more games and prove his strength. At Valladolid, he is expected to get more playing time and lay a solid foundation for his future career. At the same time, this transfer also reflects Bayern’s importance and support for the development of young players, even if they are temporarily unable to get enough opportunities in the Bayern first team, the club will try to find the right platform for their growth.
