Leon Goretzka’s time at FC Bayern is running out. The Munich team wants to give the squad spot to a talent in the future. A second division professional is being discussed.
Munich – The time of Leon Goretzka at the FC Bayern expires. There are increasing signs that the midfielder’s contract, which expires in the summer, will not be extended. And then? Either Bayern brings in a young, external gem or the record champions rely on their own talent.
Kennet Eichhorn from Hertha BSC (contract until 2029) is very popular with the Munich team. But there are certainly voices among the bosses who are of the opinion that there is no need for an expensive new signing in the summer. The 16-year-old, who will be out for a long time with a torn syndesmosis, is expected to cost around 25 million euros in the overall package.

The stipulated exit clause should amount to 12.5 million euros, plus salary, special payments and the consultant’s fee. Even without Goretzka, the midfield would be well positioned from next season. Joshua Kimmich and Aleksandar Pavlovic are seeded. Tom Bischof should be built behind it.
If you were to buy a new right-back like Givairo Read (Feyenoord), Konrad Laimer would also be an option. Even tens Jamal Musiala could help out in midfield. A homegrown player could take Goretzka’s squad spot in the future. After tz-Information there are currently considerations to bring Noel Aseko back from Hanover.
The 20-year-old has been on loan since the summer, the second division club has a purchase option worth one million euros, and Bayern could buy him back for a low sum of millions. Aseko applies FCB-internally as a “physics monster”. With Javi Fernandez (19) and David Daiber (19) there are other midfield gems on campus. Philipp Kessler, Vinzent Tschirpke
