Despite a fairly exceptional season which ended with a new Bundesliga title and a Champions League semi-final, Bayern Munich is constantly seeking to perfect an already impressive offensive animation. With elite profiles capable of destabilizing any European bloc like Michael Olise, Harry Kane or even Luis Diaz, the Bavarian giant is not resting on its laurels and is actively scanning the market to bring a new spark to its workforce.
In this quest for reinforcements, which mainly targets weapons coming off the bench, the Munich leaders had set their sights on Anthony Gordon. However, the negotiations leading to the England international ultimately did not come to fruition, the former Newcastle winger having decided to join FC Barcelona, who did not skimp on the means on this transfer. This therefore pushed the German recruitment cell to immediately activate contingency plans to unearth the rare pearl on the wings.
Ismaël Saibari in the sights of Bayern Munich
This is how the Recorder began discussions with Ismael Saibari, according to the latest information from Fabrizio Romano. These exchanges began directly after the failure of Gordon’s transfer and Saibari’s profile is particularly appreciated by the Bavarian staff, who are now waiting to know the price asked by PSV Eindhoven. For his part, the player is very keen to join Bayern this summer according to the indiscretions of the Italian journalist.
Saïbari, who is preparing to play the World Cup with Morocco, could be a smart target. It must be said that the Moroccan international is coming off a high-level performance, posting an impressive performance of 19 goals and 9 assists in 37 matches in all competitions with PSV. All while establishing itself as a key element of the Atlas Lions, despite less stellar performances with the winners of the last CAN. Currently under contract until June 2029 with the Dutch club, the talented 25-year-old player could well reach a major milestone if the two teams manage to find common ground in the coming days.
