The 2024 summer market faces the end of June in a period of apparent restraint. A few days before clubs close their financial statements for the season, most situations fall, temporarily, into the chapter of intentions. Much has been said, for example, about the squad restructuring plan Bayern Munich will undertake, with a collection of names floating in and out, names that have already been linked to other teams. Among the former, in the absence of officiality, it was practically taken for granted Michael Olise, a 22-year-old French winger from Crystal Palace, will go to Munich, which would require, in principle and by pure business logic, the sale of one of Bayern’s wingers. The only thing missing is Barça’s acquisition of Hansi Flickthe coach of the Bayern sextet in 2020, to connect the dots and supposedly put any of the talented wingers of the German team in the culé orbit: Leroy Sane, Serge Gnabry and Kingsley Coman. MD has already reported that strengthening the left winger is one of the two technical priorities that Barça aims for as long as the economy allows it, but in that case the preferred candidate is Luis Diazfrom Liverpool, with Nico Williams, from Athletic in the bedroom. Among Bayern’s dribblers, Sané has already stated his intention to continue in Munich and now Gnabry has followed him with a continuation speech.
Gnabry was in Kitzbuhel on Monday at the ‘WorldChanger Tennis Tournament The 28-year-old was blunt: “Absolutely!”
Information from Germany spoke of Bayern’s desire to free itself from Gnabry’s high salary in order to carry out squad remodeling, as it was suggested that his annual salary would reach around 19 million euros. As for Coman, the player seen in the German press as likely to leave, he is not on Barça’s agenda in the current context.
The idea of Bayern, which wants to regain the supremacy of German football that Bayer Leverkusen clearly took from it this season, is to reduce its wage bill by 20% to invest in the future pillars that should bring the Bavarian team to a new phase of dominance , first in the Bundesliga and ultimately in European football. This is the difficult equation of football in 2024, otherwise very common with very few exceptions: reduce costs and improve performance.
