Bayern Munich are doing the groundwork for a big summer transfer window as they anticipate multiple incomings and departures. Strengthening the attack is at the top of the to-do list for Bayern in the summer.
The record Bundesliga champions will focus on bringing down the average age of their attack by signing young wingers. They are ready to part ways with Kingsley Coman and Serge Gnabry for suitable offers. Leroy Sane may also leave the club as he has three months left on his contract.
According to Sky Sports, Bayern are closely monitoring Southampton winger Tyler Dibbling. The young English forward has been one of the few shining lights for Saints in an appalling season. With Saints likely going back to the Championship, Dibbling could be on the move.
Max Eberl and Christoph Freund rate Dibling highly. They are keeping tabs on him, but have yet to contact his representative to understand the conditions for a potential summer transfer. Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur have a concrete interest in the young winger.
Dibling’s current deal at Saints expires in 2027. They will not be under pressure to sell him in the upcoming transfer window, but this summer will be the best time for them to get a significant fee for the English winger.
Apart from Dibling, Bayern have registered concrete interest in Borussia Dortmund forward Jamie Gittens and Athletic Bilbao’s Nico Williams. It looks certain that Die Roten will get at least one winger by the end of the transfer window.
Bayern also looking at different number nine options
Along with signing a winger, Bayern are reportedly open to signing a striker who can serve as a deputy to Harry Kane. They have already been linked to Mainz striker Jonathan Burkardt in the last few days. Burkardt has been part of the German national team during the ongoing international break after his prolific goalscoring campaign with Mainz.
As per Sky Sports (via iMiaSanMia), Bayern are also keeping tabs on Stuttgart striker Nick Woltemade. The U-21 German striker has scored nine goals in 21 Bundesliga appearances this season. He is not at the top of the list, but certainly one to keep an eye on if Die Roten decide to sign a young striker to serve as deputy of Harry Kane.
Die Roten could well have a revamped attack by the end of the summer with young players replacing the senior stars.
