Bavarian dilemma successfully addressed by rapid intervention of Luis Díaz
FC Bayern Munich Preparing Double Attack Reinforcement
FC Bayern Munich is set to bolster its attack with the potential addition of two players: Luis Díaz and Nick Woltemade. While Jamal Musiala's injury could potentially open a spot for Díaz, the German giants are not considering replacing Woltemade with the new signing. Instead, they are pursuing both players simultaneously.
Díaz, who was recently acquired from Liverpool for approximately €75 million, is expected to play a significant role in Bayern's attack, lining up alongside Harry Kane, Serge Gnabry, or Kingsley Coman. Woltemade, on the other hand, remains a key target to fill the void left by Musiala's injury, despite difficult negotiations with Stuttgart [1][2].
The sporting director of Stuttgart has confirmed that Woltemade is likely to remain with the club for now, but Bayern is prepared to finalize his signing if the club changes its stance. Bayern has even allocated a special budget for Woltemade, indicating their intent to add him rather than replace him with Díaz [3].
Díaz made his debut for Bayern in a test match against Olympique Lyon, where he won a penalty that Michael Olise converted to make it 1:0. He also created several chances in the first half and impressed coach Julian Nagelsmann with his intensity. Joshua Kimmich praised Díaz, stating that he could have scored another goal [4].
Meanwhile, the young talent Tom Bischof (20) has been making waves during the pre-season. He was more noticeable than Paul Wanner (19) during the first half against Olympique Lyon, even playing in Kimmich's position. Lennart Karl (17) and Cassiano Kiala (16) also showed promising performances as wingers [5].
Bayern's next test match is scheduled against Grasshopper Zurich on August 12th, followed by the Supercup against VfB Stuttgart on August 16th. The Bundesliga kick-off is set for August 22nd, where Bayern will face RB Leipzig at home [6].
As the new season approaches, the addition of Díaz and potentially Woltemade promises to inject fresh energy into Bayern's attack, setting the stage for an exciting campaign ahead.
