Bayern Munich was unable to win any title in the 2023/24 season. And there may be up to 7 players who will leave the Allianz Arena team this summer.
#1LEROY SANE
Sane is probably the most sought after Bayern star at the moment. The former Man City player is likely to return to the Premier League next season. The Germany international signed for Bayern in 2020. Since then, he has scored 48 goals and provided 50 assists in 175 appearances.
Sane is undoubtedly one of the best wingers in Europe and Bayern consider him an important player. However, his contract only runs until 2025, which means he could be sold this summer if an extension is not accepted.
Liverpool are said to be keeping an eye on Sane in case they lose Mohamed Salah and will make a move to recruit Sane if he is ready. Chelsea have also been said to be interested in Sane in recent weeks.
#2JOSHUA KIMMICH
Defensive midfielder Joshua Kimmich has played an important role in Bayern’s success over the past few years. But reports suggest he could take on a new challenge elsewhere. Like Sane, Kimmich’s contract is only valid until 2025 and extension negotiations are currently deadlocked.
The 29-year-old’s situation has attracted the attention of Man United, Man City, Arsenal and Liverpool, who are all considering signing him in the summer.
Kimmich has a wealth of experience at the top level and can play as a defensive midfielder or right-back. He made 388 appearances for Bayern, scoring 42 goals and making 104 assists. He won 8 Bundesliga titles as well as 1 Champions League in 2020.
Kimmich knows Pep Guardiola well since his time as coach of Bayern. So a reunion at the Etihad Stadium team may be about to happen.
#3ALPHONSO DAVIES
Davies is one of the fastest players in Europe and a key star for Bayern. But he may leave at the end of this season. In the context of the German club being in poor form, the 25-year-old player is considering whether to extend his contract beyond 2025 and is being targeted by some of Europe’s biggest clubs.
Real Madrid is said to be interested in signing Davies, but the left-back is also receiving interest from major Premier League teams such as Liverpool and Man City.
Not being able to keep Davies will be a big loss for Bayern. But it is thought they would be willing to accept an offer of around €50m (£43m) for the Canadian if he does not extend his contract.
#4HARRY KANE
Harry Kane joined Bayern from Tottenham for a record fee of £100 million last summer and is showing his value. The English striker has scored 36 goals in 32 appearances in the Bundesliga. Calculated in all competitions, this number is 44 goals and 12 assists after 45 matches.
Kane leaving Bayern after just one season would be a big surprise. But recent reports suggest that Man United could make a shock transfer in the summer to sign him.
Kane signed for Bayern to win trophies but his team failed to win any trophies this season. That is one reason why Kane is said to be considering leaving the club early.
Additionally, it is thought that Man United’s soon-to-be-appointed sporting director, Dan Ashworth, will make the Red Devils a more attractive destination for Kane than when they tried to sign him last year. 2023. The possibility of Kane staying at Bayern is still very high, but no one is sure what will happen.
#5MATTHIJS DE LIGT
Matthijs de Ligt is considered one of the best young midfielders in the world when he joined Bayern from Juventus in 2022. However, the Dutch international is having difficulty with his form this season. Tuchel left him out of the starting lineup for the crucial match against Leverkusen in February, opting instead to use Eric Dier.
However, many clubs still consider De Ligt a world-class defender and could send Bayern heavy offers to buy him this summer. The British press said that Man United and Arsenal are very interested in signing De Ligt if he is willing to leave.
#6JAMAL MUSIALA
One of the most exciting young players in the world, Jamal Musiala is a talented attacking midfielder with an extremely promising future. To date, the 20-year-old has made 163 appearances for Bayern, scoring 43 goals and contributing 31 assists.
Like many players on this list, he is only under contract until 2025. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed in January that Bayern will try to tie him down to a long-term contract in the coming months. However, with Bayern empty-handed this season, Musiala could join another club in the summer.
Liverpool, Man City, Chelsea and Arsenal have all previously expressed an interest in the Germany international. However, Musiala won’t come cheap as he is valued at an estimated €100m (£86m).
#7SERGE GNABRY
Another former Premier League player, Serge Gnabry did not play successfully for Arsenal but has really found a place in the Bundesliga. Gnabry joined Bayern in 2017 and scores at least 10 goals every season. He could play well as both a winger and a striker during his time at Allianz Arena.
However, Gnabry has recently struggled with injuries and he has only made five starts in the Bundesliga this season. Kane’s appearance also caused the German star to lose the opportunity to play regularly.
Man United and Man City were linked with Gnabry last year. So they could return to ask to buy this summer if Gnabry wants to look for another challenge after an unstable season with Bayern.
