FC Bayern is likely to rebuild its squad after an overall disappointing season. West Ham United’s Declan Rice is considered a defensive midfield candidate. However, the Munich threatens a transfer defeat.
As the portal “Football Insider” reports, Rice would like to stay in the Premier League. For this reason, Arsenal should be in pole position in the courtship of the England international.
Rice has apparently decided to make a change. The 24-year-old is said to have told his friends that he played his last league game for West Ham United. The London club will face Fiorentina in the Conference League final this season (June 7).
“Sky” recently reported that there had already been an initial exchange between FC Bayern and Rice’s advisors. The six is represented in transfer and contract issues by family members.
According to “Sport1”, the Rice on Säbener Straße is “internally an issue”. His name was already “among the current Bayern stars,” according to the TV broadcaster before the season finale.
Two big hurdles for FC Bayern
In addition to Arsenal’s interest, West Ham United’s transfer fee is a major hurdle for Bayern.
According to media reports, the Hammers want to pocket at least 100 million euros for the 2021 European Vice Champion. Those responsible at FC Bayern therefore currently consider the realization of the deal to be unlikely, according to “Sky”.
After winning the championship, the Munich team is facing an exciting summer of transfers. In addition to signing a new clearer, the search for a new goalscorer is a priority on Säbener Straße. Randal Kolo Muani from Eintracht Frankfurt is considered the ideal solution for FC Bayern.
