Kicker: Eber puts Gittens on Bayern s target list and is talking to the players

Bayern Sports Director Ebert previously temporarily returned to Munich to handle transfer affairs. German media "Kickers" reported that Dortmund winger Gittens is now a member of his target list.

Eber left the United States and returned to Munich this week. It is generally believed that he is focusing on transfer matters. However, before the first game of the Club World Cup against Auckland City, he said that he only focused on the events and would prioritize the signing work. The reason why he temporarily changed his schedule was that after being rejected by Nico, the pressure on Bayern's signing work was increasing.

Although Bayern executives are still waiting and watching - they still have a chance against Nico if Barcelona cannot meet the financial conditions, the club has begun to look for alternatives more specifically.

"Kickers" learned that Eber has included Dortmund winger Gittens on the signing list and is in conversation with the players. Gittens is reportedly in talks with Chelsea, is Eber taking the transfer seriously? The transfer fee for signing Gittens may be as high as €60 million or even higher, so it may be very expensive to engage in a bidding battle with Chelsea.

Also on Bayern's shortlist are AC Milan's Leo and Liverpool's Garkepo. For Leo, Bayern has many supporters, and it is also possible to include Kim Min-jae as a bargaining chip in the transaction. After all, Milan has expressed initial interest in the South Korean defender.

As for Gakepo, there are some doubts within Bayern: partly because the transfer fee of about 70 million euros is not cost-effective, and another factor is that Bayern is unwilling to pay such a large amount of money to a club that has just taken Wilz.

Paris's Barcola is also an interested player in Bayern's senior management, but it is not yet certain whether he will be sold this summer. Brighton's Sanzao Hsuan is likely to be unable to reach a consensus within Bayern: because the club's management also lacks enough confidence in him.

Given the reservations to Sansatsu and Gakbo, and the fact that Balcola is not necessarily sold, Bayern's first choice for replacement Nico has become Gittens and Leo. The key is: Bayern must really convince the target players to join in order to avoid repeating the dilemma of consecutive rejections when looking for a coach last year.

Bayern senior executives have noticed that both Wiltz and Nico are more willing to go to other teams, and their concerns have arisen. Therefore Eber must return to Munich - whether it is active or passive, a planned arrangement or a temporary decision.

coach Kompani's response on Friday was vague: "I don't know very well why he left for now." Sports director Floind gave a clear reply: "There is no special reason. But we held a meeting and made a division of labor. There are indeed some talks that need to be carried out at present, and he is in the European time zone, we think now is the right time."

new player Jonathan Ta revealed that Eber did not say goodbye to the team: "No, he should be back."

"Kickers" concluded that Eber's current priority is of course to actively find winger candidates, but more importantly, he must clean up the team's personnel, at least prepare for potential players before the summer window (July 1). Then, in the best case scenario, he also wants to bring in a new player who can be recognized by the fans.
