FC Bayern Munich is said to have once again kept an eye on a Bundesliga star when looking for a full-back.
Ridle Baku from VfL Wolfsburg is a topic on Säbener Straße.
Wolfsburg/Munich – A new right-back in the summer is high on the agenda at FC Bayern Munich*.
Ideally, the newcomer should make a lot of progress in the chain of three or five.
Benjamin Pavard's strengths are more in the defensive area, the Frenchman is planned in the Nagelsmann system in the central defense.
Since his arrival in 2020, Bouna Sarr* has rarely been able to prove that he can really help the people of Munich.
Accordingly, the FCB bosses are keeping their eyes and ears open for an alternative.
Recently, the name Sergino Dest (FC Barcelona) often haunted the international headlines, but now a personality appears that Munich is not dealing with for the first time: Ridle Baku from VfL Wolfsburg*.
FC Bayern: In 2020, those responsible decided on Bouna Sarr instead of Ridle Baku
As
calciomercato.com
reports, the 23-year-old is apparently a topic on Säbener Straße, as he was in 2020.
At that time, Bayern opted for Sarr instead - and are likely to regret this decision today.
Instead of moving to Bayern, Baku then switched from Mainz to Wolfsburg and developed splendidly with Lower Saxony and became a German national player*, he has worn the DFB dress four times so far.
Young German national player - Baku would therefore fit perfectly into Munich's requirement profile.
FC Bayern would probably have to shell out 25 million euros for Ridle Baku
The problem: In Wolfsburg, the winger still has a contract until 2025, so he would not come to the Isar free of charge.
According to
transfermarkt.de
, Baku has a market value of 25 million euros.
Under this sum, the wolves would hardly be willing to let one of their key players go.
Bitter from Bayern's point of view: In the summer of 2020, when FCB decided on Sarr, Baku would have been available for around ten million euros.
It remains to be seen whether the German record champions are ready to open the money box wide for Baku.
