Johan Manzambi is becoming one of the most noticed names after his outstanding performance in the Swiss national team jersey at the World Cup. The impressive form of this young midfielder has earned him attention from many big clubs, including Manchester United.
Manzambi had a memorable shining performance when he came on as a substitute and scored two goals in Switzerland's 4-1 victory over Bosnia and Herzegovina. This is a match that helped the 20-year-old player attract great attention from experts.
Previously, Manzambi also had a successful season at Freiburg when he scored 5 goals and had 4 assists in the Bundesliga. His versatile playing ability helps him become a target for many clubs to follow.
According to British media, Manchester United is one of the teams interested in the Swiss midfielder and is ready to compete in the race to sign him. However, Thomas Muller wants his old team Bayern Munich to act first.
The former Bayern striker, who owns 33 titles in his career, believes Manzambi is the type of player suitable for the Bavarian team. He said: "He is a comprehensively good player. We have put him on the target list for quite a long time.
For me, this is a player that Bayern Munich should consider. You can feel his flexibility, confidence and very positive attitude," Muller commented.
The former German international also appreciates Manzambi's maturity even though he is only 20 years old: "You can see the maturity in the way he handles situations, makes decisions and in his working spirit. He is developing very well at Freiburg, a team that always plays at high intensity.
He can play in the number 6, number 8 or number 10. He wears the number 9 shirt, so maybe we can also use him as a striker," Muller humorously shared.
