Bayern Munich has identified French defender Jules Koundé as a key target for reinforcing its right-back position. However, reports suggest that any potential transfer negotiation involving the player and Barcelona is anticipated to be complex. Sources indicate that the club’s management in Munich is closely monitoring the situation surrounding the French international.
Crucially, the club’s pursuit of Koundé appears contingent upon the departure of Sacha Boey. The player is reportedly not included in the plans for the upcoming season under coach Vincent Kompany. Therefore, Bayern Munich aims to finalize a sale of Boey first.
This initial transfer is deemed necessary both to create immediate space within the squad roster and to generate necessary financial capital. It is understood that the club’s efforts to secure Koundé will intensify only after Boey’s future playing status has been settled. On the side of Barcelona, reports suggest that the club is not considering Koundé to be untouchable, indicating a potential willingness to discuss a sale.
This strategic dependency suggests that Bayern’s immediate focus remains on resolving the domestic situation involving Boey before making a definitive move for Koundé from Barcelona.
