18-Year-Old Nigerian Striker Scores Two Minutes Into Bundesliga Debut For Bayern Munich


parentage Joshua Zirkzee scored on his Bundesliga debut for Bayern Munich as the champions recorded a 3-1 win against Freiburg in a matchday 16 fixture at the Schwarzwald-Stadion on Wednesday night, allnigeriasoccer.com reports.

The 18-year-old came off the bench in the 90th minute with the scoreboard reading 1-1, replacing Barcelona loanee Philippe Coutinho and he had a big say in the outcome of the game.

Two minutes into his debut, he slipped the ball though goalkeeper's Flekken legs after receiving a pass from Serge Gnabry to make it 2-1.

Lewandowski's 16th minute opener was cancelled out by Grifo on 58 minutes, before Zirkzee's game-winner in injury time, then Gnabry made sure the points were safe when he scored Bayern's third goal.

Aged 18 years and 210 days today, Zirkzee is the youngest ever Nigeria-eligible player to score in the German Bundesliga.

A Netherlands U19 international, the prolific center forward made his first team debut for Bayern Munich against Tottenham Hotspur in the Champions League exactly a week ago.

Further confirmation Man United are after Nigeria international – ‘First discussions’ with agent already done, club want €30m

By Tom Coast - 18th December 2019

Earlier this week, it was revealed by Yahoo! Sport journalist Manu Lonjon that Manchester United were taking an interest in Club Brugge’s Emmanuel Dennis.



There wasn’t a lot of information in the tweet other than a scout had been present to watch the player score a nice back heel against KV Mechelen in a 3-1 win at the weekend, and that the 22-year-old fit Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s plans of revamping his squad with more young talent.

Foot Mercato on Wednesday, however, add a bit more detail in an article confirming Lonjon’s information.

The French website explain that source have told them Manchester United are indeed after the Nigeria international, and have joined other Premier League sides, like Leicester and Southampton, in the queue.


Not only that, but ‘first discussions’ have already taken place between English clubs and Dennis’ agent towards a possible transfer.

While that might be the case, Club Brugge will not make it easy for their forward to leave, knowing full well the talent currently at their disposal, with an asking price of around €30m for a player who has three years left on his contract in Belgium.

Not exactly a huge amount for Manchester United, but we all know how reluctant they can be when it comes to spending if they aren’t 100% sure he’s the right man for them.

Good morning by the way

Oh you mean benching Batshuayi and Giroud for Tammy is based on sentiment by Lampard.

My man football is all about trust and Tammy has not failed Lampard and i want to tell you Tammy is better than Batshuayi.

Oh Osimhen,i don't want to make the comparison but i don't see Osimhen joining Chelsea with Tammy available but if he does then i will be extremely happy as a Chelsea Fan, meaning we are going to have reminiscent of Yorke and Cole of old Man Utd.

I'm not particularly bringing in Giroud into the equation though and sentimentally speaking, Batshuayi would have performed as good as Tammy is doing if not better given an equal amount of games opportunity.

Like you said, football is all about trust and Tammy hasn't failed in that regard

Osimhen shouldn't try it because Chelsea style wouldn't favour a 4 4 2 formation like in the days of Dwight Yorke and Andy Cole of Manchester United on a consistent basis, so bench would be his destination because with the report of Chelsea going for Chukwueze,

It means a 4 3 3 is the best and most preferred formation at the Bridge

Whoever said Batshuayi is better than Tammy should not even be considered a football fan. I'm a Chelsea fan and about a season ago while hazard was still our player, bats was given all types of opportunities but failed successfully. His hold up play is trash and he doesn't score headers nor from outside the box.

ChrisKels:


Bro u no dey tire?

Abeg leave me.... not bad if we try him out...
Are you insinuating we should leave him for Netherlands

As much as I don't fancy Tammy bkus of the shenanigans that played out prior his debut with the 3Lions, I will never be blinded by hate, that boy is everything Batshuayi wish he was. The kid is a mentor to the Batsman. He is a far more better striker, all round.

Ndidi na bad belle See as he was marking Iwobi last night

I think that was oxymoronic if i'm not mistaken

Subzero047:

jihday:
I know all about him but let me ask you a question, given the choice to choose between Lewandowski/Suarez or Firmino who will you go for?

If Klopp is still in charge and he sticks with his style of play,I'll stick with Firmino.


At the end of the 2017/2018 season, only Ndidi and Gueye had more tackles than Firmino in the premier league... That shows just how hardworking he is...

Icon4s:


This man are you fully based in Umuahia?

No sir, I dey Enugu. Actually, it was academic stuffs that took me round Umuahia, THEN.

Osimhen shouldn't try joining Chelsea ooo.

Left for me, I would even rate Batshuayi higher than Tammy Abraham if given the opportunity to do so.

What he has been lacking is playing time as what has been working for Tammy is the championship experience with Lampard in the dough out

Batshuayi better than Tammy in 2019?? LMAO Bats is washed. Dude has clearly not progressed from his time in Marseille.
Tammy is much better at the moment. All this Tammy hate is just hilarious tbh

After their draw against Valencia, you were implying that barca will ball them at Nou Camp.

How are they poor, I mean your Barcelona?

So I should lie abi ?

Yes I said Barca will beat them but we could not ,it’s football bro

I repeat barcelona where poor yesterday

Humility017:


He should go to Liverpool please...
The 2 English kids in Chelsea and Spurs are untouchable for now.

Tammy & Kane

Don't think he will fit into the Liverpool system.

His technical attributes do not lend him to the Liverpool system.

jihday:
I know Firmino is hard working blablabla but at the end of the day a striker who bring plenty goals will get more recognition. Do you know Firmino has never scored 20 league goals in his career?

Agreed

Won’t blame firminho because he is an attacking midfielder
