FC Bayern must generate income to finance transfers.
That's why a defender should now go, but the transfer is dependent on another change.
Munich - The Bundesliga transfer window closes at 6 p.m. on Tuesday evening.
Until then, the responsible sports directors are still trying to put together the best possible team for the season that has already started.
At FC Bayern *, Chris Richards, a young defender, is about to make another move.
The American is on the list of several clubs, it is not yet clear whether it will be a temporary or permanent farewell.
He might even stay in Munich.

Already in the penultimate season, the 21-year-old Richards fought his way into the professional squad and made his debut in the Bundesliga *, after eight appearances for Bayern, he moved to Hoffenheim for the second half of last season. In the Kraichgau, the central defender developed into a regular, TSG had the loan cost 250,000 euros. In view of the US national player's appearances, the Hoffenheim officials apparently considered a further loan or even an obligation *, but the latter option is said to have been too expensive for FCB's Bundesliga rivals, as
Sport Bild
reported.
The Munich-based company is said to have asked for ten million euros for the 1.88-meter man who moved from FC Dallas to the campus at the beginning of 2019 for 1.1 million euros.
However, the Hoffenheim * could possibly still raise the sum if the courted Florian Grillitsch leaves the club for Italy.
AC Milan is considered to be the largest interested party and has already made a high seven-figure offer, as

The amount responsible for TSG was too low, they are demanding 12-15 million euros for the Austrian.

FC Bayern: Another interested party for central defender Chris Richards - Munich needs income
The deal would probably suit the Bavarians, as the Hoffenheimers would have the funds for the Richards transfer in the course of the Grillitsch change. With a renewed loan you would probably not be completely satisfied in Munich, given the Corona crisis, the league primus also lacks the financial means to make large transfers. A permanent change of the youngster would be the preferred solution, Richards would not be available for a free transfer until summer 2023.
Should the Grillitsch transfer fail in the last few meters, Richards would apparently still have a specific change option. As
Independent
from Great Britain reports, Leicester City is also supposed to squint at the US boy. However, a transfer to Hoffenheim and coach Sebastian Hoeneß, with whom Richards was able to win the third division championship with the FCB reserve, would be the best sporting option for the defender. The future of the defensive player will be clarified by Tuesday evening.
