"The decision isn't made by the coach alone, but by the whole club. At 20-years-old, PSV is an excellent place to start a career. He'll get plenty of playing time here, and might even win a league title. When I was 20, I was also at Anderlecht in Belgium, another great platform for young players. So it's an outstanding level for his age, a perfect development opportunity for Paul. I can see him growing, and I like that,"
"Rewind two years and Paul Wanner was one of the most coveted young players at Bayern Munich and in Germany with clubs - and nations! - battling for his signature. A lot can change...and quickly. Now, Wanner is looking to reshape his career at PSV Eindhoven, which has become his proving ground. For Bayern Munich head coach Vincent Kompany, the sale of Wanner to the Dutch power was the correct move for his career."
Two years ago Paul Wanner was one of Germany's most coveted young talents, attracting interest from clubs and national programs. A difficult spell at Bayern Munich stalled his progression and prompted a change of scenery. Wanner transferred to PSV Eindhoven to rebuild his career and establish himself through regular first-team minutes. Vincent Kompany described the move as appropriate for a 20-year-old, noting PSV offers playing time, potential silverware and strong developmental opportunities similar to Anderlecht. Bayern Munich retained a buy-back option on Wanner. After a slow start, he is beginning to show renewed form in the Netherlands.
