Why Bayern’s dream player Tah could become more expensive | OneFootball

FC Bayern bosses would like to strengthen their defence with Jonathan Tah from Bayer Leverkusen. But the international could be more expensive than expected.

Leverkusen defender Jonathan Tah is apparently on FC Bayern’s wish list for the coming season, but the Munich club would probably have to dig deep into their pockets for the defender.

Tah only has a contract with the newly crowned German champions until 2025, but Leverkusen would still ask Bayern to pay a lot for the 28-year-old.

According to BILD, the internal attitude at Bayer is: No league rival will be strengthened. This applies not only to Bayern, but also to Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig.

According to the report, a transfer fee of around 40 million euros would be realistic for Leverkusen. According to the report, Bayern would only set the sum at half that amount.

Leverkusen boss on Tah: „Want to extend“

Leverkusen’s sporting director Simon Rolfes told BILD: „We want to keep Jonah and extend his contract beyond 2025“. The 42-year-old continued: „We’ll talk about that after the season, now the focus is on achieving the maximum. And Jona thinks the same way.“

If Tah were to leave Leverkusen after the season or next year, he would only want to move to a top 10 club in Europe , according to Sky.

Last summer, Tah had an exit clause of 18 million euros, but this is no longer valid in the coming transfer period.

According to the report, Tah’s agent Pini Zahavi is currently in talks with potential new clubs. According to the report, Bayern are on the table and talks are said to have already taken place.

According to BILD, however, Bayer Leverkusen are not aware of any talks between Tah and Bayern or even an agreement.

Bayern sporting director Max Eberl and sporting director Christoph Freund Freund want Tah as an experienced and vocal centre-back, according to Sky. But first a player has to be sold. Dayot Upamecano is mentioned as a possible candidate.
