Bayern Munich in the transfer crisis: Woltemade remains a dream ship!

München, Deutschland - The summer transfer period ensures the FC Bayern Munich The Munich, who delivered a remarkable performance last season, are now facing a dilemma. Prominent departures, including Thomas Müller, Leroy Sané and Mathys Tel, increase the pressure on those responsible. It is rumored that Sané moves to Galatasaray and Tel to Tottenham Hotspur. As a result, Bayern urgently need to strengthen their squad in order to continue to be competitive.

sports director Max Eberl still has some time, but the situation is anything but relaxed. The association is currently in the so -called "transfer backlog" and has difficulty signing the desired players. There are major hurdles to overcome on the transfer fee for Nick Woltemade from VfB Stuttgart and Luis Díaz from Liverpool FC. While Liverpool rejected an offer of 67.5 million euros for Díaz, Stuttgart demands at least 65 million euros for Woltemade after the first offer of 40 million plus five million euros in bonuses has not been accepted.

negotiations on Woltemade

Nick Woltemade is at the top of the list of Bavaria, has scored 12 goals in the last Bundesliga season and the Talent contract is still running until 2028. VfB boss Alexander Wehrle makes it clear: "We do not leave [Woltemade]. He will also play for us next season." Bayern prepare a second offer that could possibly be between 60 and 70 million euros. But one wonders: will that be enough to change Stuttgart?

Furthermore, Bavaria is also interested in Nico Williams from Athletic Bilbao. However, a transfer has so far been unsuccessful, which also made the planning of the Munich residents more difficult. In addition, other players such as Florian Wirtz, Xavi Simons, Leandro Trossard and Christopher Nkunku were associated with a move to Bavaria, which increases the complexity of the situation. The plans seem to be stalled with some high transfer fees of up to 100 million euros.

financial challenges

The responsible persons not only have to acquire new players, but also generate transfer income and reduce salary costs in order to master the financial challenges. Players like João Palhinha, Min-Jae Kim and Bryan Zaragoza are available as sales candidates, but the realistic income is currently not promising. For example, Inter Milan offers only half of the originally targeted price of 51 million euros.

In the middle of these turbolent times, established professionals such as Serge Gnabry and Leon Goretzka also show that they want to resonate with Bavaria. Leaving the club is not up for this player. Together these are some construction sites that FC Bayern Munich urgently needs to tackle before the ball rolls again in the new season. The look at the table of Bundesliga also no less excitement: The income and expenditure of the clubs are more in focus than ever, and above all the big names have to deliver the financial bookkeeping of the association into balance.
