Now it's official.
Ryan Gravenberch is moving to Bayern Munich for the coming season.
The transfer of the 20-year-old midfielder from Ajax Amsterdam is fixed.
Munich – It took a long time, but now the transfer is official.
Ryan Gravenberch will appear at FC Bayern from next season.
This was confirmed by the record champions on Monday evening.
Before that, however, there was a little chaos surrounding Gravenberch's father.
"Ryan Gravenberch will give our team a lot," said FCB sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic in the press release: "He's one of the greatest talents in Europe, has excellent technique, always finds solutions in the smallest of spaces, is very dynamic and a goal threat.
The fact that he chose FC Bayern shows that he is convinced of our club and the opportunities we have.
We love players with that mentality.
We are convinced that we will celebrate many successes with him.”
The transfer of the youngster had actually been certain for weeks, now the confirmation of the clubs was missing.
On Monday afternoon, Gravenberch's father had already pushed ahead and posted pictures of Ryan signing the contract on Instagram.
