Guerreiro leaves Bayern – top club interested | OneFootball

Raphaël Guerreiro’s departure from FC Bayern is a done deal – and the first top club is already positioning itself to sign him

As Munich officially confirmed on Monday, the 32-year-old’s contract will not be extended in the summer, bringing the Portuguese international’s chapter at Säbener Straße to an end after two years

However, Guerreiro is unlikely to remain without a club for long. According to the Record, a top European club, Benfica Lisbon, is already looking at the experienced player

According to the report, the Portuguese record champions are currently looking closely at the possibility of a transfer and Guerreiro has aroused the interest of those responsible

However, a final decision has not yet been made, with the player’s age and susceptibility to injury playing a major role in Lisbon’s deliberations

One thing is certain, however: Guerreiro’s transfer-free status in the summer could make him an interesting option for many clubs

Bayern say goodbye with clear words

FC Bayern have already officially announced his departure, with sporting director Max Eberl finding words of appreciation for the versatile left-footer

„We would like to thank Rapha warmly for the time we spent together: you could always rely on Rapha on the pitch, plus characters like him enrich every dressing room. The talks with him were good, trusting and understanding.“

He added: „Now we’re concentrating on our goals with him until the summer – we want to achieve a lot more together.“

The 2016 European champion has a wealth of experience and could be of interest to Benfica not only as a player but also as a leader

The 65-time Portugal international is now embarking on a new chapter in his career – possibly in Portugal.
