The departure of Mickael Cuisance was bearable for FC Bayern. The departure of Corentin Tolisso, on the other hand, would create a big “hole” in the squad. With Denis Zakaria, the FCB has already set its sights on a potential successor. According to current media reports, the record champions have two serious rivals in the race for the Swiss.

Even though Zakaria has struggled with performance this season, the 25-year-old midfielder is on the wish list of many top clubs in Europe. One reason for this is the fact that he will be available on a free transfer next summer. Recently, reports have been circulating that Zakaria could leave Borussia Mönchengladbach as early as this winter. FC Bayern also seems to be keeping a close eye on the player.

Liverpool enters the transfer poker, BVB have not given up yet either

The defensive all-rounder could replace Tolisso in Munich. According to “BILD” information, Bayern are even planning to bring in the Swiss as a centre-back should Niklas Süle leave the club in the summer.

According to ESPN, there are two other clubs besides Bayern that are seriously interested in Zakaria. BVB would also like to sign the Swiss international. Dortmund is looking for a replacement for Axel Witsel, who could leave the club at the end of the season.

In addition, a new interested party has emerged in the form of Liverpool FC. As “ESPN” has learned, the Reds are also trying to sign Zakaria. In Liverpool, he could replace the two old stars James Milner and Jordan Henderson. According to the TV channel, Liverpool are open to a winter transfer. Gladbach is demanding nine million euros for Zakaria, for a January transfer. Too much for Bayern. According to the “BILD Zeitung”, the Bavrians are ready to pay 4.5 million euros. The FCB would prefer a transfer without a fee in the summer anyway, because by then it will be clearer whether and how things will continue with Süle and Tolisso.
