Bayern Munich relies on U21 hope Woltemade instead of expensive transfers!

FC Bayern Munich is facing an exciting time as the striker position is under great scrutiny. Leroy Sané is moving to Galatasaray Istanbul, so the Munich team is desperately looking for a new left winger. However, the previous preferred candidates all seem to be unattainable. So reported Picture that Bayern is toying with Nico Williams (22), Bradley Barcola (22, PSG) and Jamie Gittens (20, Dortmund), but the chances of signing these players are currently extremely slim.

Now people in Munich are rethinking and are looking at their own solution: U21 star Nick Woltemade (23) from Stuttgart. The talented winger has already informed VfB Stuttgart that he has rejected an offer to extend his contract. The Bayern bosses also trust Kingsley Coman (29) and Serge Gnabry (29) to take on responsibility next season after their strong performances at the Club World Cup in the USA.

Bayern's Plan B: Focus on their own talent

Internally, those responsible are playing with various options. The idea of ​​forgoing a new winger and giving Woltemade a chance could turn out to be a smart move. Whether this step will actually work remains to be seen. Because the competition doesn't sleep: FC Barcelona is interested in Nico Williams and believes they can land him despite financial bottlenecks. Things could also be tight for Jamie Gittens, as he has apparently already reached an agreement with Chelsea. Dortmund's sports director Sebastian Kehl also set the price for Gittens at an impressive 65 million euros.

Bradley Barcola remains a dream solution, but he could not be available until 2026 at the earliest. Coach Thomas Tuchel's team is faced with many challenges.

The next steps: Further options at a glance

Bayern is also looking for other players. Rafael Leão (26) is viewed critically internally because of his team spirit and defensive behavior. Cody Gakpo (26) and Luis Díaz (28) from Liverpool and Gabriel Martinelli (24) from Arsenal are also on the list. The question remains whether you should choose a top signing for the record champions or should you focus on your own talents.

The coming period promises a lot of excitement for Bayern fans. We can only hope that the people of Munich make the right decision with a clever plan and the necessary tact.
