Next departure confirmed: Bayern pocket multi-million transfer fee | OneFootball

FC Bayern has secured their next transfer: Another player is leaving the record champions, and the club is receiving a multi-million transfer fee.

Paul Wanner is leaving the record champions and making a permanent move to PSV Eindhoven. According to information from Sky, all parties reached a full agreement on Monday. The deal brings Munich 15 million euros plus possible bonus payments—there is no longer any talk of a loan, as was previously speculated in some quarters. According to the report, however, FCB has secured a buy-back clause, the amount of which remains unknown.

Wanner is expected to leave Munich later this Wednesday evening to undergo his medical check in Eindhoven.

For Wanner, the transfer means the hoped-for step towards more playing time. The 19-year-old had already signaled for some time that he wanted to play regularly at the highest level. Although he could theoretically have filled a gap in Bayern’s squad due to the current absence of Jamal Musiala, neither the club nor the player himself believed he was ready for a permanent role in the first team.

In recent weeks, PSV Eindhoven had already been considered the favorite in the transfer race. The Dutch top club intensified its efforts, especially after the serious injury to Alassane Pléa, and thus prevailed over other interested parties such as Werder Bremen and Borussia Mönchengladbach. Bayern recently rejected Gladbach’s request for a loan.

Wanner can now play in the Champions League

For Bayern, the transfer is a lucrative deal. Although Wanner, who was loaned to Heidenheim for the 2023/24 season, is considered a highly talented prospect, he was unable to secure a permanent spot in the first team despite promising performances in pre-season. With the permanent sale to Eindhoven, Munich secures a solid transfer fee while giving the player the opportunity to prove himself in the Eredivisie and the Champions League.

For Wanner, PSV is an ideal step. The club has established itself in recent years as a springboard for young players and now offers him the chance to play regularly at an international level.
