As reported by 90Mins, Nianzou signed for the Spanish side in a deal believed to be worth €20 million. His contract with Sevilla runs until 2027, with a release clause of €90 million.

While the defender now has the chance to play more regular first-team football, Bayern have not closed the door completely on the player.

Bulinews reported that the German side have a buy-back clause in the player’s contract of €55 million.

If Sevilla decides to sell the player for less than €55 million, Bayern have the option of matching that offer and signing Nianzou back. Bayern will also receive 22.5% of the transfer revenue if Nianzou is sold to any other club.

The 20-year-old joined Bayern in 2019 on a free transfer from Paris Saint-Germain. He made 28 appearances for Bayern in all competitions during his time in Germany but was a part of the team that won the Bundesliga title. He’s also won the French title with PSG and will be hoping to replicate that success in Spain.
