According to the feedback in the current transfer market, the new manager of Bayern Munich has been confirmed, and there is no doubt that Rangnick will be the candidate. Because even Romano has just posted that the negotiations between the two sides are going very well, and the next thing is only to sign. In a way, the godfather of German football tactics theory is very much in line with the requirements of the club in terms of personal style and philosophy. This may be the reason why Bayern are determined to sign him.
It is worth mentioning that in addition to the fact that a contract will be agreed between Rangnick and Bayern. The two sides have even begun to discuss the offseason, the purge of the team and the recruitment of the team. With the full support of the top brass behind the scenes, Rangnick made his own request. He hopes the squad can further strengthen their midfield in the summer transfer window, with two players to be signed. They are Frimpong, who currently plays for Bayer Leverkusen, and Barcelona midfield talent Frenkie de Jong. In Rangnick's view, these two players can support his main midfield framework for the new season.
At present, Bayern's senior management has adopted his opinion, in addition to the difficulty of Frimpong to operate, De Jong has long been a player that the senior management has been thinking about for a long time. Even if Rangnick does not play De Jong's request, Bayern will want to sign him to replace Goretzka, who may be leaving. These two deals have become the focus of Bayern's current recruitment. Bayern had contact with Barcelona some time ago, and the Red and Blues did not ask for De Jong at a high price. Around 70 million euros can be taken, which is a perfectly acceptable figure for Bayern Munich. Bayern themselves are teams with high transfer budgets in football, but they don't like to spend too much.
And the team will also purge the squad this summer, which will also recover a large amount of transfer fees. It can be said that Bayern's transfer budget this summer will not be less than that of other giants. Therefore, it is actually easier to get them to complete a few heavyweight deals, and De Jong should not have much of a problem signing next. Of course, the main reason why Barcelona did not raise the price further is that they want to get rid of the burden of De Jong's high salary. The Dutch star has become much less important to Barca's existing midfielders, but his incremental contract next season will come to close to €40 million. This made Barcelona feel unaffordable, and cleaning it out was the best option, and Bayern picked up a bargain in disguise.
Other than that, it's Frimpong, which Rangnick asks for. As the hottest midfield star this season, the player can also play as a full-back, although he is a midfielder on the surface. And the player has a strong attacking attribute, playing 40 games for the team in all competitions this season. Scoring 13 goals and providing 10 assists is a luxury for a midfielder. The player's current official value on the German transfer is 50 million euros, and Bayern should actually sign him for about the same price as De Jong.
Considering the competition between Bayern and Bayer Leverkusen in the league, this deal is likely to consume a lot of Bayern's energy. But if you want to further strengthen the team's midfield, then signing both Frenkie de Jong and Frimpong is crucial, which will directly change the main structure of the team. Bayern's midfield has indeed reached the moment of reshuffle, which is why the Bayern hierarchy is so supportive of Rangnick. It's hard to imagine Rangnick having the decision-making power to bring in Bayern Munich before he was officially signed, and it can be said that the level of support from the top is unprecedented.
With the full recommendation and support of many senior executives, I believe that after Rangnick takes charge of Bayern in the future, his scope of power will be very large, and it will also be very helpful for him to control the voice in the dressing room. So in your opinion, will the godfather of German football tactics be able to regain his dominance with Bayern Munich next season?
