However, the striker was unable to establish himself permanently at Bayern and moved to FC Bologna in 2022 for a transfer fee of €8.5 million. However, in addition to a buyback option, Bayern has also secured a 50 percent share of the resale, reports Sport Bild.

This means that the record champions would also benefit from a transfer of the 23-year-old and would subsequently receive 20 million euros.

Karl-Heinz Rumenigge: “He deserves it”

Zirkzee still has a contract in Bologna until 2026, but impressed with strong performances last season and recommended himself for higher tasks. This did not go unnoticed by former Bayern boss Karl-Heinz Rummenigge. “I’m happy for him that he’s doing well, he deserves it. I’ve always seen him play well for us. His bad luck was that he had someone like Lewandowski in front of him,” the 68-year-old said about Zirkzee in the Gazetta dello Sport in March.
