Olympique Marseille renew interest in Bayern Munich’s Sacha Boey | OneFootball

Foot Mercato reports that Olympique Marseille have renewed their interest in Bayern Munich right back Sacha Boey. The Bundesliga record champions remain open to a sale, as directly admitted by FCB chief personnel officer Max Eberl in an interview some weeks back. The 24-year-old maintains an €18m estimated market value.

Boey joined Bayern from Galatasaray during the January 2024 transfer window for a reported sum of €30m. Injuries have nevertheless precluded the former French youth international from featuring much. Boey has made just 15 Bundesliga appearances for the Bavarians in the last 18 months. He’s garnered just one league and one Champions League assist.

Boey has featured for Vincent Kompany’s side in the ongoing Club World Cup, starting two of Bayern’s three group stage fixtures. The former Stade Rennes man scored a goal in Bayern’s 10-0 romp over Auckland City on June 15th. Shortly after that, Kicker reported that the Bayern coaching staff definitely wished to retain him.

A move back to his native country could still very much appeal to Boey and Bayern would presumably be more than pleased to fetch some cash for him. With Josip Stanisic and converted right back Konrad Laimer, there are already two qualified professionals to fill Boey’s position. Squad alternate captain Joshua Kimmich is also a natural right back.
