Jonathan Tan has signed with Bayern Munich, becoming the most significant addition of the summer transfer window thus far. His previous experience at Bayer Leverkusen under coach Xabi Alonso made him an appealing target. Despite joining on a free transfer, his salary will be substantial. The tactical adjustment required for Tan to transition from a system with three center backs to one with two under Vincent Kompany presents challenges, particularly regarding his suitability as a left or right center back, which he addressed in recent comments.
Jonathan Tan's signing emphasizes Bayern Munich's strategy in the transfer market, as they secured a vital player who has proven leadership abilities and adaptability in different defensive systems.
Tan, the former Leverkusen star, is accustomed to playing both in back four and back three systems, which raises questions about his integration into Bayern's two-center back formation under Vincent Kompany.
