Several sources in Germany revealed that Bayern sent an official offer to Paris Saint-Germain for Nordi Mukiele (26). The Frenchman of Congolese origin is exactly what Thomas Tuchel is looking for – a right-back who can cover the stopper position when needed. Mukiele played in the Bundesliga for four years, for RB Leipzig, he has a lot of experience and would not need a period of getting used to the league and a new country, which is practically an ideal situation for any coach. The news about the Bavarians’ interest was first released by Florian Plettenberg, and then L’Equipe completed the information: the club from Munich offered the Parisians a six-month loan with an optional purchase set at 25,000,000 euros.Confirmed: Bayern has been informed that a transfer of Nordi #Mukiele is possible now! Talks ongoing as Tuchel is pushing for a center-back (Dier & others) and a right-back (Mukiele). Mukiele, a serious topic now! At this point, I cannot confirm an official offer.

According to one, PSG is ready to release Mukiele if he manages to find a stopper in the next few days and arrange his arrival on loan, as the club has a lot of problems with injuries. According to others, even that won’t be enough for the defender to get the ‘green light’ for a transfer, as Achraf Hakimi is off to the Africa Cup of Nations and Luis Enrique doesn’t want to take any chances. Nordi Mukiele has only started four times this season, playing a total of seven games in Ligue 1, plus 26 minutes in the Champions League. Even the Spanish specialist used him more often as a left back…Sane agrees to talk about contract extension but…Bayern’s sporting director Christoph Freund did not want to deny or confirm interest in Mukiele…”I can only say that it will be exciting this winter in Munich” said Freund.He then admitted that big deals could be expected from Bayern, like the one when Harry Kane arrived.”Harry has already proven that every penny invested was worth it. If something like that happens, if we are sure that someone else can improve our team so much, then we will be ready to go again and again for such expensive reinforcements. But we are also aware of what is waiting for us if we make a mistake. That’s why there’s no rush” Freund concluded with a smile.##NAJAVA_MECA_7781553##
