Interested in the Leipzig star? FC Bayern is in the mix | OneFootball

FC Bayern is being mentioned in connection with the pursuit of Antonio Nusa. Several clubs are keeping an eye on the Leipzig winger, and Munich is reportedly among them.

A new name has appeared on the list of offensive targets at Säbener Straße: Antonio Nusa. The 21-year-old is under contract with RB Leipzig through 2029, but is said to have attracted the interest of several high-profile clubs. According to the Newcastle-based newspaper The Chronicle, Bayern Munich is listed as a potential suitor alongside English and Italian clubs.

Newcastle United is reportedly the frontrunner. Following Anthony Gordon’s move to FC Barcelona, the Magpies are looking for a replacement on the wing—and Nusa himself is said to be waiting for an offer from England. According to The Chronicle, Leipzig would be willing to sell for an offer equivalent to around 50 million euros.

Bayern is just one of many interested parties

The list of interested clubs is long. In addition to Newcastle and FC Bayern, The Chronicle also lists Juventus, Tottenham Hotspur, and Crystal Palace. However, according to the report, none of the clubs has yet made a serious move for Nusa. Whether—and to what extent—the Munich-based club is truly interested in the dribbling-proficient right-footed player therefore remains to be seen.

On the field, Nusa is currently making waves on the big stage. The attacking player is on the field with the Norwegian national team at the World Cup in North America. He started in the first two group stage matches, which Norway won against Iraq (4–1) and Senegal (3–2).

Saibari even before the final shot

One reason for the delay could be the ongoing roster planning. Ismail Saibari, a top-class attacking player, is already on his way to Munich. The 25-year-old Moroccan has already passed his medical exam, and Bayern will pay PSV Eindhoven approximately 50 million euros, including bonuses, for the transfer.

With the Saibari transfer nearing completion, the club has already invested in the attacking wings.
