Tuchel’s strange ideas: Kepa was his backup, now he wants him as the first goalkeeper

A stopper was signed (Kim Min-Jae), a left back (Raphael Guerreiro) and a central midfielder (Konrad Leimer), a striker is much needed (the Harry Kane saga is ongoing), but every serious team must also have a quality goalkeeper, which is why Bayern will try to bring in a quality custodian until the end of the transfer window, following the knowledge that Manuel Neuer will probably not return to the field until the end of the calendar year.There is no end to Bayern’s troubles: Neuer out of goal until the end of the yearIt is far from the fact that Sven Ulreich is not of good quality, but he is not really good enough to inspire confidence, because he has lived forever in the captain’s shadow, and that is why in Munich they are worried about how he would manage as the first choice. Considering that Yann Sommer was sold to Inter Milan, and Alexander Nubel went on loan to Stuttgart, it is logical that the Bavarians are looking for another goalkeeper.According to information from Florian Plettenberg, from the German branch of Sky Sports, the “eternal champion” will try to bring Kepa Arrizabalaga. Now, whether the Spaniard is better than Ulreich is difficult to assess, because in all this time, and it has been five years since he arrived at Chelsea, he has not convinced anyone that he is a long-term solution, as Edouard Mendy replaced him during the Senegalese stint at Stamford Bridge.Yes, #Kepa is one of the candidates for FC Bayern now – confirmed. As there’s the possibility to loan him. Talks took place as per @kerry_hau. #CFCKepa and #Rulli, top on the list. #Bono remains a candidate but it’s not hot at this stage. @SkySportDE 🇪🇸 pic.twitter.com/kFQqD6IXF5— Florian Plettenberg (@Plettigoal) August 9, 2023 However, Thomas Tuchel, who has some hard-to-understand ideas anyway, is “stuck” on Kepa, because he knows him from his tenure in London, even though he was his backup then, because he chose Mendy as his no.1 between the posts and helped the Blues win the Champions League in 2021 in Porto.German media suggest that the leaders of Bayern have established contact with their colleagues from Chelsea, and so far the dialogue is of a more informative nature. Although the big question is how the English will react to the proposal, since they were left without Mendy (he moved to Saudi Arabia), and they brought in Roberto Sanchez from Brighton to compete with Kepa.##NAJAVA_MECA_7421089##As for Bayern, Premier League sides have already rejected them twice. One was regarding a goalkeeper, because they failed to reach an agreement with Brentford on the transfer of David Raya, and the other being the above-mentioned saga surrounding Kane and Tottenham, given that Daniel Levy does not let the star Spur go.At the Allianz Arena, they have prepared a backup option if they fail to win Kepa. It’s Geronimo Rulli from Ajax, who are on a selling spree anyway and are signing mostly ‘anonymous’ players, while there is no agreement about Yassine Bounou from Sevilla that he is of sufficient quality for that environment. As if Kepa is…?
