Will Yann Sommer come as a new replacement in winter?

The transfer poker between FC Bayern and Borussia Mönchengladbach is in full swing.

Munich – Shortly after the New Year, Yann Sommer's transfer to Bayern Munich seemed to have already been decided.

As reported by the Swiss newspaper

, the 34-year-old should sign a contract with Munich until 2025.

However, the news was denied shortly afterwards, and those responsible at Borussia Mönchengladbach were clearly against the sale of their keeper.

Apparently, with a corresponding transfer fee, Sommer could still switch to the Isar.

FC Bayern wants goalkeeper Yann Sommer: No final cancellation by Gladbach

After Manuel Neuer's serious injury, FC Bayern wants to sign a capable goalkeeper in winter if possible, while summer is considered a top candidate.

And that, although the Gladbach decision-makers only recently spoke a word of power regarding their number one.

"We will not give up Yann Sommer.

We told Bayern that too," said sports director Roland Virkus of the

.

His trainer Daniel Farke also told Sky that there was "no reason and no desire to give him up".

Nevertheless, the two parties are apparently in the middle of transfer poker, according to an

report, despite Virkus' public statements, there was no final rejection of Bayern sports director Hasan Salihamidzic.

The foals should therefore continue to be willing to talk.

Sommer is still under contract with Gladbach for another six months, and the Swiss national keeper is said to have already approached his superiors with his desire to change.

However, his possible transfer to the German record champions mainly depends on two variables.

Gladbach wants a higher transfer fee for summer: a possible successor will cost around ten million euros

The first condition for a move would be an adequate replacement for Sommer.

According to information from

, the Gladbachers should deal with the Swiss Jonas Omlin from HSC Montpellier, but he would only switch to the Lower Rhine for a fee of around ten million euros.

A summer sale should therefore create the basis for the acquisition of his successor if possible.

Bayern are apparently planning to spend four to five million euros in the summer, but as

reports, that's not enough for Gladbach.

The traditional club is therefore demanding a transfer fee of eight to ten million euros in order to give summer to Munich in the middle of the season.
