Bayern won’t get Barcola (Sport Bild’s Christian Falk)
Bayern Munich has long been an admirer of Paris Saint-Germain attacker Bradley Barcola.
The talented 23-year-old is someone who the Bavarians have wanted to bring in the past two summers. Now, though, Barcola is ready to leave PSG, but there is “no room at the inn.” Given that, Barcola could be looking at a future with Liverpool, who seems to be spending massive amounts every summer now:
Bayern Munich are following this potential transfer of Bradley Barcola to Liverpool. Last summer, and the summer before,
they were always in contact with the Frenchman’s management. The 23-year-old is a player on the shortlist, and even this summer they knocked on Barcola’s door to check his situation and what his feelings were for the future, as his current contract runs out in 2028. There are no negotiations with PSG, at the moment, for a contract extension, so he’s getting cheaper and cheaper every year.
The left-sided winger is too expensive this summer for Bayern Munich, but it’s a pity that he’s not too expensive for Liverpool right now! They are closer to this deal. Yan Diomande, it seems, will be signing for Real Madrid, so Liverpool really need a player like Barcola now. Bayern, on the other hand, could use a player like this in the future. We don’t know what’s happening with Michael Olise long-term. This summer, of course, we know he’s staying put, but next summer the big question will be whether Olise signs a new contract or if Bayern will be forced to sell him.
The number one option to replace Michael Olise would be, as far as Bayern Munich are concerned, Bradley Barcola. If Liverpool are there, however, and if he’s signing for the Reds, there’s no chance for Bayern. But next summer, there could be a chance if he’s staying in Paris for another season.
If Bayern Munich eventually wants to get Barcola, it will clearly have to wait a few years — and what’s so bad about grabbing a winger in his late 20s from Liverpool anyway?

Eichhorn out with metabolic disorder (Bayer Leverkusen)
In a tough bit of luck, Bayer Leverkusen signee Kennet Eichhorn is set for a spell on the sideline after being diagnosed with a metabolic disorder:
Earlier this summer, Eichhorn seemed slated to transfer to Bayern Munich, the but the request for a signing bonus pushed the Bavarians to move on. Now, the youngster will have to get healthy and then get back to his developmental path.
There were some whispers that Eichhorn could potentially be on the radar for the German national team, but this could be a setback to those hopes.
