Rumors about Barça’s Dembélé again
After the fixed commitments of Ajax Amsterdam duo Ryan Gravenberch (20) and Noussair Mazraoui (24) as well as Liverpool attacker Sadio Mané (30), the squad construction sites at FC Bayern have reduced significantly. The situation in the storm center remains problematic: Robert Lewandowski (33) is pushing for his departure after eight years with Munich and apparently wants to go to FC Barcelona. His project leaves FC Bayern – at least publicly – cold, the series champion refers like a prayer wheel to his goalscorer’s contract, which is valid until 2023. Nevertheless, the people of Munich are apparently dealing with alternatives.
As “Sport1” reports, those responsible are on the lookout for a possible successor, a “nine with top qualities”. That search turns out to be extremely complicated. The preferred solution Erling Haaland (21) – Lewandowski was reportedly annoyed by the courtship of the BVB attacker – preferred to join Manchester City. There is currently no suitable or affordable candidate for Bayern within reach on the market. A man of world-class level? Not available at the moment. And: According to consistent reports, Stuttgart’s Sasa Kalajdzic (24) is no longer a serious issue.

In the event of Lewandowski remaining, Munich would have gained time in the search for an adequate replacement. Should the veteran receive approval by Deadline Day, FC Bayern would still have Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting (33) available on the budget. Newcomer Mané can also act centrally in front. With returnee Joshua Zirkzee it is still unclear how things will continue, although it looks more like a farewell. The 21-year-old Dutchman, most recently on loan at RSC Anderlecht, is being courted by Ajax Amsterdam and VfB Stuttgart. And Anderlecht would also like to keep Zirkzee.
FC Bayern insists on demand from Lewandowski – Dembélé issue?
FC Bayern initially wanted to wait and see how Lewandowski’s personnel developed. According to reports, FC Barcelona has increased its efforts to win over the Poles. The “Bild” recently wrote that the Catalans have increased the offer from 32 to 35 million euros. According to the Polish online portal “Meczyki.pl”, Barça is said to have offered a further 5 million euros in bonuses. However, according to “Bild”, FC Bayern does not want to sell the world footballer for less than 50 million euros if the worst comes to the worst.
“I never deal with stuff that’s in the air now. I can only repeat it again: He has an employment contract until 2023. He is welcome in Munich on July 12 and he will also be there for the first training session. At least I’m expecting him,” said Bayern sports director Hasan Salihamidzic recently in a “Sky” interview.

As meanwhile in the TV show “Onze d’Esport3” was reported, Bayern are still in the race for winger Ousmane Dembélé (25). Accordingly, the record champion and also interested FC Chelsea would want to pay the ex-Dortmunder, who is free of charge, more than his current employer Barcelona.
