FC Bayern are already planning for the coming season – and one name is increasingly coming into focus
According to Sport BILD, Givairo Read is at the top of Munich’s internal wish list
The 19-year-old Dutchman from Feyenoord Rotterdam is considered an extremely exciting transfer candidate for the defence at Säbener Straße. Read is still under contract with Feyenoord until 2029 and is regarded as a modern, dynamic full-back with great development potential. It is striking that although FC Bayern is actually well-staffed on the flanks, those responsible around Max Eberl and Christoph Freund are pursuing a clear strategic plan for Read
The idea behind it: If the transfer is successful, Josip Stanisic will be used more in central defence in future. Read would bring additional flexibility on the flanks in return. The youngster can defend on both the right and left, which is why, according to the report, there would be no need to look for another professional on the left. Bayern would thus not only broaden their squad, but also make it more tactically variable
Bayern see Givairo Read as a man for the future
Read is not a short-term project. Rather, Bayern see him as a solution for the coming years that should be built up at an early stage. This fits in with the current squad strategy of signing young players with good prospects in order to ensure long-term stability and quality
The name Read is not new in Munich. He has already been discussed in recent weeks in connection with the unclear future of Sacha Boey. Should Boey leave in the summer, Read could fill this gap in perspective. Internally, he is seen as a profile that fits the requirements exactly: pace, athleticism, willingness to learn and positional flexibility
Nothing has been decided yet, but the trend is clear: Givairo Read is at the top of FC Bayern’s list – and could become one of the hottest transfer topics at Säbener Straße in the coming months.
