Wanner faces a crucial future: will he stay with Bayern or change?

Paul Wanner, the talented young player from FC Bayern Munich, is currently on loan at FC Heidenheim in the Bundesliga. While Heidenheim is fighting to stay in the relegation game against SV Elversberg, Wanner will return to his parent club Bayern in the summer. However, the 18-year-old's exact future with the record champions remains uncertain. How laola1.at reports, another loan move for Wanner could be planned after the season, possibly to an international club.

Interest in Wanner is pronounced. Several Bundesliga clubs, including Eintracht Frankfurt and VfB Stuttgart, are interested in signing the player. According to reports, a final decision on Wanner's future is still pending. In this context, FC Bayern's signing of Florian Wirtz could reduce Wanner's chances of securing a permanent place in the attacking midfield.

U21 European Championship instead of Club World Cup

A crucial aspect of Wanner's current schedule is his participation in the U21 European Championships. Instead of traveling to the Club World Cup in the USA with Bayern, the midfielder will play for the German U21 national team under coach Antonio Di Salvo. The U21 European Championship begins on June 12th in Slovakia, where Wanner can show off his skills in the football challenge fussballtransfers.com reported.

The team will prepare in a training camp in Blankenhain in Weimarer Land from May 26th to June 4th. Before the tournament, the U21s will play two test matches. The first is on June 1st against a regional opponent, followed by another test on June 5th against Finland. The DFB coach has high expectations of his squad, which consists of 26 players, with the official 23-man squad having to be reported to UEFA by June 4th, according to information from bundesliga.com.

Anticipation and goals of the U21

The German U21's first tournament game will take place on June 12th against Slovenia in Nitra, followed by further group games against the Czech Republic and England. The U21s' highest ambitions include qualifying for the quarter-finals, with all first and second-placed teams in the four groups progressing. The final of the U21 European Championship is scheduled for June 28th in Bratislava.

Ultimately, the question for Wanner is where his path will take him, both in the short and long term. While the U21 European Championship provides a platform for young talent, uncertainty remains about his role at Bayern.
