Agreement between Kyle Walker and Bayern Munich

What’s next after this ad

Bayern Munich is determined to do its utmost not to relive a difficult exercise like the previous one. Despite a title of German champion which should have escaped him without a disappointment from Borussia Dortmund, the Rekordmeister is primarily targeting an attacker. The departure of Lewandowski a year ago hurt him very badly. Sadio Mané did not have the expected performance, he who is not a pure number 9, and is asked to leave; so you need a goalscorer.

The Harry Kane dossier is complicated but perhaps not impossible to achieve. Everything will depend on Tottenham. The discussion is open but it drags on and the transfer window is advancing quickly. Other cases are open, in particular the case of the right side. Benjamin Pavard still wants to leave, Noussair Mazraoui is asking for playing time but does not seem to have the confidence of the staff to start, and João Cancelo has already returned to Manchester City.

Walker said yes to an optional 2-year contract + 1

It is always in the direction of the European champion that the Bavarians look. A few weeks ago, they took the temperature for Kyle Walker. At 33 and at the end of the contract in a year, he played a little less last season under the orders of Pep Guardiola, in particular for tactical reasons. Faced with the contractual situation of the Englishman, City would not close the door to a departure, even if the latter offers sporting guarantees and a certain high level requirement.

It will be necessary to find an agreement between the two clubs. Bayern are imagining compensation around €15 million, a sum well within their reach. In the meantime, Walker has already said yes to the German champion. According to Sky Germany, a verbal agreement was found around a two-year contract, plus an optional year. It’s already a big step forward, before finding common ground with Manchester City. Once this file is unblocked, Bayern will have free rein to settle the Pavard case.
