Bayern Munich gets fucked in all directions

No. Here is the most understood word by Bayern Munich leaders in recent weeks. Priority target of the club for years, Florian Wirtz finally said yes to Liverpool. A huge disappointment for the residents of the Allianz Arena, who have been chatting seriously with the player and his parents for almost eight years. And it was not the only hard blow for them. In recent months, the Bavarians have been refusing many refusals. However, they try blows, in particular to recruit a winger in order to compensate for the departure of Leroy Sané or even that of Kingsley Coman, who continues the seeds and which the club would like to sell.

It's not for Nico Williams and Barcola

But as we have explained to you on our site and as the player has confirmed, his plan is to continue in Munich. Despite this, Bayern has an urgent need to recruit an offensive element. The name of Nico Williams (22) was cited. But the rekordmeister has never really been an option in the spirit of the Spanish international, which was more than sensitive to the interest of FC Barcelona. Despite everything, the Bavarians tried it and even wanted to offer him a salary of € 12 million per year. But that won't be enough. Indeed, the Athletic Bilbao announced the extension of Nico Williams this Friday until 2035.

The file is therefore closed. It is the same for Bradley Barcola. Bayern Munich checked its name and hoped to find a flaw with the strong competition prevailing at PSG which does not provide a holder's place to the former OL player. But we have explained to you on our site that the player and PSG wish to continue together. Sky Germany also explained that Nasser Al-Khelaïfi assured Bavarian leaders that the international tricolor is part of their project and that he is not for sale.

Complicated rescue plans

The club trained by Vincent Kompany also tried the field for Jamie Bynoe-Gittens (20 years old). Discussions even took place with the entourage of the Borussia Dortmund player. But again, this file ended in failure. The BVB, which did not necessarily want to strengthen competition, reached an agreement with Chelsea for its transfer. Still missed. This week, the name of Luis Diaz (26) was also cited. There BBC Sport Even revealed that an offer had been made for him by the Germans, but that it was refused by the Reds. The latter said that he is not for sale. In addition, Barça, which has the preference of the player, made its plan A after the failure of the Nico Williams file.

Malick Fofana (20) is also in the short-list of Bavarian leaders. Besides the situation of OL which is not yet settled, competition is fierce for the Belgian. Naples, Leipzig, Fulham, Liverpool, Chelsea or Nottingham Forest are cited among his contenders. It will also be difficult to get hold of Marcus Rashford (27 years old). In recent days, the name of English has been mentioned. Back in Manchester United after his loan to Aston Villa, he still wishes to join FC Barcelona. His chances are even more important today after the extension of Nico Williams. Bayern Munich will have to be patient to find the rare pearl this summer.
