FC Bayern could apparently strike twice at PSV Eindhoven this summer.
The interest in offensive player Ismael Saibari has been known since the beginning of the week. The Munich team should now pick up the pace when it comes to personnel. But FC Bayern probably has another player from the Dutch champions on their list.
As “Bild” reports, the Bundesliga club is also looking at right-back Sergino Dest. The 25-year-old is said to have been a specific transfer topic at Säbener Straße in 2020. Now FC Bayern is apparently looking at the US international again.
With Konrad Laimer and Josip Stanisic, the Munich team already has two right-backs in their squad. However, Dest can also play on the left side of defense. Here, FC Bayern lets Raphaël Guerreiro leave for free. Hiroki Ito should not be considered unsaleable. Alphonso Davies is always plagued by bad luck with injuries. There would definitely be a need.
Bayern flirt at the World Cup
Dutch journalist Rik Elfrink also reports on FC Bayern’s presumed interest. Dest has a contract with PSV Eindhoven until 2028.
The Dutch-born player comes from Ajax Amsterdam’s youth ranks. In October 2020, the defender moved on to FC Barcelona. After a loan spell at AC Milan, Dest moved to PSV Eindhoven in the summer of 2023, initially on loan and then on a permanent basis.
Last season, the US international contributed two goals and eight assists in 38 appearances. Dest is currently preparing for the World Cup with the USA. How concrete FC Bayern’s interest is remains to be seen. According to consistent media reports, the Munich team is currently pushing ahead with Saibari’s desired signing.
