Bayern Munich News: The aftermath of FC Bayern’s 15-0 win over Rottach-Egern; Manchester City close to a big signing?; and MORE!

As a rite of summer, Bayern Munich took on FC Rottach-Egern in a friendly and put a sound beating on the local club.

While not as historic as previous seasons, Bayern Munich did thoroughly dominate Rottach-Egern for a 15-0 victory that was powered by a few standout efforts. Let’s dive into the details, here are some quick hitters on the match:

As always let’s begin with a look at the starting XI:

Bayern Munich coach Vincent Kompany did not intend to take it easy on the home side as he started several professional talents and mixed them in with a few starlets and also a few AAAA players (not good enough for the first team, but maybe too good for the second team).

As expected, Bayern Munich came out storming and tallied four goals in the first 13 minutes as Filip Pavić, Arijon Ibrahimović, and Felipe Chávez (two) all found the back of the net.
It seems as if Armindo Sieb‘s time with Bayern Munich needs to come to an end. The youngster’s development has stunted and this just might be what he is. While a player of his talent could be valuable for FC Bayern II or some other Bundesliga clubs, it would seem that he would benefit from a permanent move away.
Admit it, how many of you were triggered by the hydration break? We kid, we kid.
Bischof plays with a real sense of urgency and it constantly looking to go forward. That could be a welcomed addition to the Bayern Munich attack this season. Bischof also has a hammer of a left foot and present a scoring threat. He could get some opportunities given the attention that the attackers draw.
Kim Min-jae put in a solid 33 minutes of work. It was a good showing from the big Korean.
João Palhinha was taking some long range shots, but not many had the requisite power.
Ibrahimović has not lost that flair and creativity that he showed as a youngster. The attacker was Bayern Munich’s best player in the first hal, followed by Bischof.
Pavić was very confident, which is great to see from such a young player.
Nathaniel Brown made his debut and we got to see the Germany internationals make their respective returns to the pitch as well.
The Rottach-Egern roster makeup was something to behold with a mix of young and old. Real players and cashiers (no joke, which is awesome).
Overall, Bayern Munich did exactly what it needed to in this friendly. The youngsters got in some good run, played well, and were able to show their talent (for the most part). Meanwhile, the veterans were able to shake off some rust and have some fun. All-in-all, this was a good experience for everyone (except maybe those Rottach-Egener goalkeepers…but, hell, they probably enjoyed the game, too).

Former Bayern Munich defender Niklas Süle is about to embark on a season strictly for the love of the game at SV Tiefenbach:

Niklas Süle joined amateur club SV Tiefenbach at the end of his illustrious professional career. The chairman of the club has now told BILD the magnitude of his arrival at the Baden-Württemberg district league club.

“It’s incredible, phenomenal. There are no expressions for what happened. We are a small, down-to-earth club and now a world star is coming here. For us, that’s absolutely crazy,” said Jürgen Bloch.

The euphoric chairman said he felt “goose bumps, palpitations and sweating” when the transfer was first announced. The head coach Jason Walzel, who has been close friends with the former Germany international for years, played a key role in convincing the defender.

It looks like Manchester City could be getting close to a move for Lille midfielder Ayyoub Bouaddi:

🚨🇲🇦 Manchester City are confident to get deal done for Ayyoub Bouaddi in the next days.

Negotiations are accelerating as reported on Monday and #MCFC increasingly optimistic.

🩵 Bouaddi to join now or in 2027 could also depends on exits, including Rodri situation.

Transfer journalist Matteo Moretto added this context as well:

Manchester City has reached a verbal agreement with Ayyoub Bouaddi.

The English club and Lille are in advanced negotiations: the parties are studying what is the best solution for the Moroccan midfielder.

Lille would like to keep him on loan for one more year, while City would like to bring him to the Premier League already.

As expected, Chelsea signed Maxence Lacroix:

There were some very loose rumors linking Bayern Munich to Liverpool midfielder Samuel Martínez, but those are untrue:

I heard the rumours of Bayern Munich’s interest in now Liverpool midfielder Samuel Martínez. I can say that the Colombian’s name wasn’t particularly hot at FC Bayern. The club knows the player and, of course, has had good experiences with Colombian players at the Allianz Arena, as you’ll know if you’re a Liverpool fan! But to be honest, it was more concrete with Borussia Dortmund. They were in talks with the player’s side and there was even a rumour about a verbal agreement having been secured with the player’s camp. So, they were certainly ahead of Bayern Munich on this transfer. We’ll have to see how Martínez gets on at Liverpool.
