In doing so, he became the youngest player in Bayern Munich's history at the age of 16 years and 15 days,[3] and the second-youngest in Bundesliga history behind Youssoufa Moukoko (who was 14 days younger).[5] The match finished as a 2–1 home loss for Bayern.[6] On 12 October 2022, at the age of 16 years and 293 days, Wanner became Bayern's youngest player in the Champions League, when he came on as a second-half substitute to Dayot Upamecano in a 4–2 away win against Viktoria Plzeň.[7]
