Bayern Munich on alert for Gavi as contract issues loom at Barcelona
The winter transfer window has revealed Bayern Munich's readiness to seize big opportunities in the market, and they are closely monitoring the situation of young midfielder Gavi at FC Barcelona.
Gavi.The Bavarian club have been keeping a close eye on the Spaniard's contract renewal problems at Barca, with a potential free transfer on the cards due to registration issues.
<p>Sky Sports Germany reported that Bayern are very attentive to Gavi's situation and could make a move if Barcelona fails to register his new contract.</p>
Although Sport in Spain stated that Gavi and Barcelona remain optimistic about resolving the contract situation in the summer, the Bavarian club is not willing to miss out on the talented young midfielder.
Bayern have long been interested in Gavi, with talks already held before he signed a new deal with Barcelona. At the age of 18, Gavi is considered one of the best midfielders in his age group, and he is a crucial player for Barcelona, playing regularly for the Spanish national team.
<p>While Bayern currently have enough midfield depth, the club would make space for a player like Gavi if the opportunity arises. However, it could spell the end of Ryan Gravenberch's spell at Bayern as the Dutch midfielder has struggled for playing time.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, Marcel Sabitzer is expected to leave Bayern in the summer after a productive loan spell at Manchester United.</p>
Bayern acted quickly in the final week of January, signing Joao Cancelo on loan with an option to buy after it was clear he would leave Manchester City. The record Bundesliga champions are also reportedly close to sealing a deal for Korad Laimer, who will arrive on a free transfer.
