"There have been a few, of course, since the U-17s. I became captain of the U-19s and won the 3. Liga title with the reserves in 2020. But above all, I think of my first game under Julian Nagelsmann in August 2021. He put his trust in me, and I performed well and fought my way into the team."
"Hardly anyone had expected that. A few weeks earlier, I had almost transferred. Fortunately, things turned out differently. The next step came in 2023 with my loan move to Leverkusen, where I developed a lot as a player and as a person."
Josip Stanišić has built a successful career at Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen, accumulating numerous trophies throughout his journey. Key moments in his Bayern career include progressing through the youth system, captaining the U-19s, and winning the 3. Liga title with the reserves in 2020. His breakthrough came in August 2021 when Julian Nagelsmann gave him his first opportunity, and Stanišić performed well enough to establish himself in the team despite limited expectations. A significant turning point occurred in 2023 with his loan move to Bayer Leverkusen, where he developed considerably as both a player and person. Currently in good form, Stanišić appears positioned for an important role in Bayern's future plans.
