FC Bayern Munich should deal with the search for a new goalkeeper with Kepa Arrizabalaga from Chelsea.
According to Sport1 information, there have already been initial talks with the Spanish national keeper. Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel knows the 28-year-old from his time at Chelsea and is said to have recommended him, as the portal reported.
Bayern Munich are said to have had the clubless David de Gea and David Raya from FC Brentford on their list. However, Raya is facing a move to Arsenal. According to consistent English media reports, the English runner-up will pay almost 35 million euros including bonuses to the “Bees”. Raya is set to sign a five-year deal until 2028 with an option for one more season.
The German record champion is under pressure after national goalkeeper Manuel Neuer’s postponed comeback plans. Because after Yann Sommer (34) switched to Inter Milan, Bayern have only one experienced goalkeeper available in Sven Ulreich (35).
Neuer (37) suffered a broken leg in a skiing accident in December while on vacation after the World Cup in Qatar. The longtime number one is currently working on a comeback in the Bayern and DFB goal. Most recently, Neuer had to undergo another operation on his right fibula. It is still unclear when he will return.
