After a tricky six months in Bavaria, Bryan Zaragoza has returned to Spanish football, joining Osasuna on loan for the season.
The 22-year-old joined Bayern from Granada in January for around €13m plus €4.5m in variables, but after struggling for minutes and with the culture change, has come back to La Liga for the coming season.
Osasuna will pay €250k for the privilege and do not have an option to buy on Zaragoza. They reportedly beat off competition from other La Liga sides including Valencia to bring in the left winger.
His signing could be a major addition to Vicente Moreno’s side this summer. Since Ez Abde’s departure last summer, Los Rojillo struggled to create the same danger from out wide, but Zaragoza should provide pace and tricky task for his opponents on the flank. Given Osasuna’s style in recent seasons, it generally benefits wingers looking to run at defenders and cross the ball in.
