TRANSFER SHOCKER: BAYERN MUNICH MAKE €60M BID FOR JÉRÉMY DOKU – MAN CITY’S UNEXPECTED CONDITION REVEALED
Bayern Munich has set its sights on Jérémy Doku, the pacey Belgian winger currently at Manchester City. Struggling to secure consistent playing time amidst fierce competition in Pep Guardiola’s squad, Doku could now be on the move again – and Bayern is keen to pounce.
€60 Million Offer on the Table
According to sources from both England and Germany, Bayern Munich has officially submitted a €60 million offer to bring the 22-year-old to the Allianz Arena. Doku joined City just last summer from Stade Rennes but has since faced stiff competition from the likes of Bernardo Silva, Jack Grealish, and Phil Foden.
City’s Special Condition
But just when the deal looked straightforward, Manchester City surprised Bayern with a special request. In addition to the transfer fee, the English club has asked for a buy-back clause or resale percentage – a move that has taken the Bayern board off guard.
More specifically, City wants either the first right of refusal should Doku be sold in the future or a percentage of any future transfer fee. It’s an unusual demand, but one that reflects a growing trend in modern football business.
What’s Next?
Bayern Munich is currently assessing the condition and whether it can be accommodated within the structure of the deal. Sporting director Max Eberl is said to be a big admirer of Doku, describing him as “a player with explosive pace and huge potential.”
Further negotiations between the two clubs are expected soon. One thing is certain: Bayern Munich is serious about signing Jérémy Doku.
