In the search for a right-back, FC Bayern seems to be targeting a new candidate. According to current media reports, Munich are dealing with the Spaniard Cesar Azpilicueta from Chelsea.
It’s an open secret that Bayern have been looking for a new right-back since summer 2020. According to reports, Julian Nagelsmann also sees the right side of defense as the biggest construction site in the current squad. The 34-year-old would therefore like an offensive full-back a la Alphonso Davies.
Will Bayern enter the Azpilicueta transfer poker game?
Until recently, Sergino Dest from FC Barcelona was considered Bayern’s dream player. The American has been repeatedly associated with the record champions in recent years. As reported by “Mundo Deportivo”, a new player has now been targeted in Cesar Azpilicueta.
The Spain international is only contractually tied to the Blues until the end of the season and is eyeing a summer departure after ten years at Stamford Bridge. As a free transfer player with international experience, he fits perfectly into Bayern’s prey scheme.
In addition to FCB, Azpilicueta should also be on the wish list at FC Barcelona. The Catalans are rumored to have already reached an agreement with the player. However, according to the newspaper, the 32-year-old would like to hear the Londoners’ offer before making a final decision about his future. Only outsider chances are attributed to Munich.
