DBasia.news – A report from Spain revealed that Bayern Munich actually wanted to sign Federico Valverde from Real Madrid in the transfer market last summer. However, Bayern’s efforts failed.
Bayern last season won the treble Bundesliga, DFB Pokal and Champions League. Even so, Bayern has continued to improve to increase their strength ahead of the 2020/21 season.
One of the sectors that Bayern still wants to improve is a position in central midfield. That was as Thiago Alcantara left for Liverpool.
Bayern are believed to have made Valverde their main transfer target. However, Madrid gave a firm answer: the 22-year-old Uruguay national team midfielder was not for sale.
Bayern needed a midfielder who has the power and ability to move up in attack. They are looking for a midfielder suitable for fast-paced German football.
Valverde is considered to meet these requirements. Bayern liked him. Only unfortunately, Madrid had no intention of selling him.
Bayern and Madrid officials has a good relationship. They won’t ‘attack’ each other even if there are certain players they like.
Valverde himself is happy in Madrid, especially after extending his contract last year. Even though Bayern believes he was the right fit for their team, Valverde would still be in the Spanish capital in the near future.
