Sport

Bayern Munich use Ajax Amsterdam again? After Noussair Mazraoui and Ryan Gravenberch, Jurriën Timber could also reinforce Bayern Munich.

The Dutch branch of US TV channel ‘ESPN’ reports that the German champions have targeted the 22-year-old. However, the rumors are not new. Already written in March “Sports1”that those responsible would be looking at the centre-back.

The 1.82 m tall centre-back made his debut for professional team Ajax Amsterdam in 2019. From the Under-15s, he also went through all youth national teams in the Netherlands and celebrated his senior international debut in June 2021.

Last season, Timber was the undisputed regular player of his club. He started all 34 matches in the Eredivisie and also scored two goals. He also prepared two goals.

Will Timber arrive as Pavard’s replacement? Arsenal also want the Dutchman

At FC Bayern, the Utrecht native could replace Benjamin Pavard, یاس بت who is willing to change. According to what was reported by “Sky”, the Frenchman has once again presented his transfer request to the club’s managers in recent days.

Furthermore, compatriot Lucas Hernández is said to be flirting with the idea of ​​leaving Monaco for Paris during this transfer period. So FCB should occupy two open positions in central defence.

However, competition in the fight for timber is fierce. Just reported this week “The Athletic”that Arsenal FC have offered €35m for the 22-year-old.

An offer that the Ajax club officials clearly believe is too low. According to “ESPN”, those responsible should ask for “much more money” than before from the clubs concerned. As a result, the race for central defender still seems wide open.

In addition to Timber, Bayern are also expected to be interested in SSC Napoli’s Kim Min-Jae.

Eurosport rating: The extent of FC Bayern’s interest in Timber will only become clear after either Pavard or Hernández are gone. If that were to happen, the 22-year-old would certainly be a good alternative. After all, the centre-back already has Champions League experience at Ajax Amsterdam. He was also part of the national squad at the World Cup in Qatar. Although he is only 22 years old, Timber could already be described as a veteran, still able to develop. This is exactly what fits the profile of FC Bayern. However, it is debatable how fierce the competition actually is on the transfer market.
