Nordi Mukiele's transfer to Munich is uncertain.
Now Bayern could make use of Newcastle United.
All transfer news at a glance.
Munich – The personnel situation in FC Bayern’s defense remains tense.
The signing of Eric Dier doesn't change that much for the time being.
Because Bayern are still desperately looking for a right-back.
However, the desired transfer of Paris Saint-Germain's Nordi Mukiele is proving difficult.
Now the Munich team could find what they are looking for in the Premier League instead.
Mukiele negotiations are stalling – is another Kane friend coming to Bayern?
Most recently, reports emerged that those responsible at Bayern, led by sports director Christoph Freund, had achieved a breakthrough in their courtship of Mukiele.
But now the negotiations for a change for the ex-Leipzig player are apparently stalling.
According to
Sky,
the Parisians do not agree with the transfer conditions that FC Bayern have in mind.
The reigning German champions want to loan the Frenchman with a purchase option, while PSG is aiming for an immediate sale.
As the Newcastle-based
Chronicle
now reports, Bayern are showing interest in Kieran Trippier from Newcastle United as they look for an alternative.
Will Kieran Trippier (l.) and Harry Kane (r.) soon work together at FC Bayern?
The two know each other well from their days together at Tottenham Hotspur and with the English national team.

Newcastle's Trippier is probably a right-back alternative at FC Bayern
According to the paper, selling the right-back is an option due to the Premier League's Financial Fair Play rules.
Because transfer spending has recently been too high, the club will soon have to sell players in order to be able to be active on the market again in the summer.
According to information from
Sky
, United are still willing to let the 46-time England international go on loan.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel is convinced of Trippier.
He is a serious alternative if the Mukiele commitment fails.
Will he come to FC Bayern?

Trippier already knows Bayern stars Kane and Dier from their days together
Trippier would also be reunited with two former teammates in Munich: Harry Kane and Eric Dier.
He played with both of them at Tottenham from 2015 to 2019, and the trio also know each other from the English national team.
So will the friends unite?
It is unlikely that Trippier will actually leave the “Magpies”.
The 33-year-old has been an undisputed regular in Eddie Howe's ensemble since his arrival two years ago and has a contract until 2025.
Will he come to FCB?
Trippier returned to England in 2022 for personal reasons
In addition, Trippier's move to Newcastle in January 2022 was primarily for personal reasons.
The right-back returned to England after two and a half years at Atlético Madrid to be closer to his family.
He also accepted financial losses for this.
If he were to move to the Bavarian capital, he would be significantly further away from his loved ones.
In the end, those responsible in Munich didn't let themselves see their cards.
Sports director Freund also used a tried and tested tactic from Franz Beckenbauer.
