Johan Manzambi was the hit of the summer for the Swiss team during the World Cup in the United States. Exceptional, he carried the Nati on his shoulders until the round of 16. He then missed the rest of the World Cup due to an injury. His performances convinced Aston Villa to pay 60 million euros, a record amount in the club’s history, to secure his services.
Enough to put some pressure on the shoulders of the Genevan. Although he has only played two matches for his club since the start of the season, due to the injury sustained at the World Cup, the midfielder seems to have already won the hearts of his new supporters. Proof of British creativity, they have already created a song in honor of the jewel of the Swiss team.
Aston Villa fans have twisted Irish rock band The Cranberries’ classic ‘Zombie’ into ‘Manzambi’. The lyrics are: “He’s in your head, in your head, Manzambi, Manzambi, Manzambi, Bi, Bi.”
Johan Manzambi, it seems, particularly appreciated the attention of his fans since he re-shared the video of the song in his Instagram story. All he needs is goals and a few sensational performances, as he is accustomed to, to become the darling of Villa Park.
