FC Bayern are apparently working intensively on the signing of Feyenoord talent Givairo Read. The 19-year-old full-back is on the Munich club’s wish list and they want to push ahead with the transfer in the coming weeks
Those responsible at Säbener Straße are therefore planning to expand the squad in the summer, particularly at full-back, with Read considered one of the most exciting candidates for the right-back position
Bayern want to speed up talks with Read’s side
As transfer insider Sacha Tavolieri reports in the Swiss edition of Sky, FC Bayern want to intensify talks with the player’s side as soon as possible. Concrete negotiations on the framework conditions of a possible transfer are to take place in the coming weeks
Munich’s aim is clear: they want to secure a good starting position in the bidding for the Dutch U21 international as early as possible
After all, FC Bayern is not the only club keeping an eye on Read
Competition from the Premier League
In addition to Munich, Manchester City are also said to be very interested in the right-back, which is why Bayern are keen to clarify the situation as quickly as possible, especially in competition with financially strong Premier League clubs
Early talks with the player could give the German record champions a decisive advantage in the transfer poker
However, a potential deal is unlikely to come cheap. Read is still under contract with Feyenoord Rotterdam until 2029, which is why the Dutch club is in a strong negotiating position. According to reports, the potential transfer fee is currently between 25 and 30 million euros
For FC Bayern, the transfer would nevertheless be an investment in the future. The 19-year-old is regarded as one of the biggest talents on the right side of defense in Europe and could play an important role in the Munich squad in the long term.
