Bayern eye Mbappe in 2024 in similar move to Lewandowski

If Kylian Mbappe leaves Paris Saint-Germain as a free agent next summer, Bayern Munich has allegedly emerged as a serious suitor.

Bayern finally found a suitable alternative for Robert Lewandowski in Harry Kane, after spending the whole previous season without one. After months of back-and-forth with Daniel Levy, the German Bundesliga champions were able to reach an agreement.

After the season, however, the club will lose both Thomas Muller and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, who are both 34 years old. On the other hand, Serge Gnabry’s future remains in question.

Since this is the case, Thomas Tuchel’s squad may want to add to their offensive options during the next summer transfer window.

We had a good relationship. If he wants to come to Bayern, I will go and get him myself. When he wants something, he gets it.”

After the ongoing season, the Paris Saint-Germain striker will be able to sign with any team as a free agent. To put it another way, every club in Europe wants the Frenchman. The Bundesliga club would welcome the 24-year-old without hesitation. However, they are frugal and responsible with their money.

Even though Tuchel has said that a move for his former player is unlikely, neither he nor the club has completely ruled it out,…
