At Borussia Dortmund, Jamie Gittens has progressed from talent to top performer in recent months. The impressive development of the BVB newcomer is said to have also brought FC Bayern onto the scene.
As “Sky” reports, the German record champions are looking into a possible signing of Jamie Gittens. Coach Vincent Kompany and sports director Max Eberl are said to have raved about him several times internally.
Accordingly, FC Bayern has already made inquiries about the 20-year-old Englishman. He in turn is informed about the interest from Munich, it is said.
A winter change should be ruled out for Gittens, whose contract with BVB runs until 2028. In the summer there seems to be no categorical no to leaving.
However, FC Bayern faces tough competition in its bid for Gittens from top clubs in the English Premier League that have not been named. In addition, BVB is reportedly hoping for a transfer fee of around 100 million euros if the offensive jewel leaves.
It’s not just BVB star Gittens who is very popular at FC Bayern
In addition to Gittens, FC Bayern is said to have another prominent candidate on the list for the offensive wing: Spain’s European Championship hero Nico Williams, who is currently earning his living at Athletic Bilbao. The 22-year-old is expected to cost between 50 and 60 million euros after the current season – a very manageable price that is said to have rekindled FC Bayern’s interest in Williams.
According to “Sky”, one thing is clear: the Bundesliga industry leader wants to attract a winger of absolute top level to the Isar in 2025.
Squad positions in this position are currently rare. However, this could change in the coming months. Leroy Sané’s contract with FC Bayern is expiring. A separation is likely. Serge Gnabry (contract until 2026) and Kingsley Coman (until 2027) have long been considered sales candidates.
