Bayern's New Gun: Tah Steps Up for Club World Cup Debut
Firm swiftly turns to Tah for aid: "He'll accelerate our progress" - Immediate Assurance: "We're here to help you promptly"
Vincent Kompany, Bayern's brainy coach, is banking big on their latest acquisition, Jonathan Tah. After just two practice sessions with his new teammates, Tah is slated to start in the Club World Cup's inaugural game against Auckland City in Cincinnati. The German powerhouse is counting on Tah to fill the leadership void, given his natural talents and wealth of experience.
"Tah, mate, ain't just a fresh face around here. He's a stalwart, with leadership skills and a pile of experience," Kompany announced during a press briefing before the kickoff. Tah's integration should be a smooth ride, as he's already played alongside many of his new teammates in the German national squad. Dayot Upamecano, however, is being eased back into action after his knee surgery in the United States.
National team stars Leroy Sané and Jamal Musiala are set for backup roles due to their recent transfers and long-term injuries, respectively. Sané, who recently joined Galatasaray Istanbul, may only be available until the potential quarter-finals, as his Bayern contract runs out at month's end. The Club World Cup final is on July 13.
