Bayern Munich recalls Spanish-Moroccan defender Adam Aznou ahead of FIFA Club World Cup

German giants Bayern Munich have recalled Spanish defender of Moroccan descent Adam Aznou from his loan spell at Real Valladolid.

Bayern loaned Adam Aznou to Real Valladolid in the January transfer window until June 30, 2025.

Although the loan deal has not expired, Bayern Munich have recalled the 18-year-old and included him in their squad for the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup.

“Adam Aznou has gained valuable experience at Real Valladolid and has developed very well. His consistent playing time proves that he has been able to hold his own at this high level. We now want to bring him closer to our professionals again at the Club World Cup so that he can take the next steps,” Bayern sporting director Christoph Freund is quoted as saying in the club’s official statement.

At Real Valladolid, Adam Aznou played 13 competitive matches for the team in Spain.

He must impress in training to stand any chance of featuring in the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup.
