FC Bayern's search for a new goalkeeper is dragging on.
Two candidates seem to have come into closer focus: Yann Sommer and Bono.
Munich – The new year will again bring difficult tasks and decisions for those responsible at FC Bayern.
The first task of the year, which is not easy, has already been decided: find a replacement for the long-term injured Manuel Neuer.

Morocco's World Cup hero: Bayern Munich is said to be in talks with Bono
The Munich team has probably even set a deadline for this project: According to the

, the club wants to have found a new goalkeeper by January 6th.
Not much time left.
Alexander Nübel gave Bayern a quasi rebuff, but according to current media reports, talks with his loan club AS Monaco are still ongoing.
The top candidate is currently Gladbach's Yann Sommer, who has repeatedly stolen points from the record champions with his saves in recent years.
Will a new name be added?
As the transfer insider Santi Aouna reports for the portal
footmercato
, FC Bayern is in talks with the adviser to Morocco's World Cup hero Yassine Bounou, known as "Bono".
He relies on his own information.

Manchester United and FC Bayern are apparently courting Bono
According to this, Bayern and Manchester United are in a duel for the 31-year-old Moroccan, who was born in Canada and plays for Sevilla FC.
At the World Cup in Qatar he played well and led Morocco to the semi-finals.
He is not a new discovery, in the Spanish league he has been one of the best keepers for years.
The
tz
knows that he could imagine an engagement in Munich.
He was a Bayern fan as a child.
Oliver Kahn is his advocate, the CEO was impressed by Bono's performance at the World Cup.

Will FC Bayern pay 20 million for Bono?
The sticking point could be his fee: According to reports, FC Sevilla can well imagine giving up the goalkeeper in winter, but not for less than 20 million euros.
Bono's market value is 15 million euros.
Sommer or Bono - one of the two could soon sign in Munich.
Sven Ulreich is already pawing his hooves on Säbener Straße.
