Former Manchester United defender Axel Tuanzebe, who is currently playing for Ipswich Town, has made a significant change in his international football career by switching his allegiance from England to the Democratic Republic of Congo (DR Congo).
Tuanzebe, born in Bunia, DR Congo, moved to England at a young age and has represented England at various youth levels. However, he has now decided to represent the country of his birth at the senior international level. This decision marks a pivotal moment in Tuanzebe’s career, as he aims to contribute to the DR Congo national team’s success in upcoming competitions.
Throughout his career, Tuanzebe has been known for his versatility in defence, capable of playing both as a centre-back and a right-back. His time at Manchester United saw him develop through the club’s academy before making appearances for the first team. In search of regular first-team football, Tuanzebe moved to Ipswich Town, where he has been showcasing his defensive skills.
This switch of allegiance to DR Congo opens a new chapter for Tuanzebe, as he looks forward to making an impact on the international stage. His experience and defensive prowess will be valuable assets for the DR Congo national team as they compete in future tournaments.
