Bayern Munich Reinforcement: Tah Gears Up Early for Club World Cup
Club Team Switch: Tah Shifts to Bayern for Club World Cup - Player Tah moving to join Bayern Munich for Club World Cup competition
Get ready for soccer enthusiasts, because Jonathan Tah is about to don the red and white for none other than Bayern Munich! According to media updates, the German powerhouse has officially snagged Tah from Bayer Leverkusen, managing to secure his services ahead of the Club World Cup.
The 29-year-old defender, a national treasure, was poised to join Bayern Munich starting July 1st. However, due to a swift agreement between the two clubs, Tah could be jetting off to the United States with his new team on Tuesday! He might even take the field against Auckland City as early as the following Sunday.
FIFA has introduced an additional transfer window specifically for the Club World Cup, allowing for the signing of new players or the extension of current contracts until June 10th.
In the meantime, Tah is still representing Germany on the national stage. He'll be squaring off against France in the Nations League third-place match on Sunday (3:00 PM, RTL and DAZN).
As for Tom Bischof, another likely addition to the Bayern Munich squad, the midfielder's summer move from TSG Hoffenheim may not be finalized in time for the Club World Cup group stage. Contract negotiations between the parties are apparently still underway.
