Transfer insider reveals Bayern interest in BVB gem Inacio | OneFootball

Samuele Inacio is one of Borussia Dortmund’s most exciting talents. The 18-year-old has made the jump to the first team in recent months and now appears to be attracting attention from international rivals as well. Particularly explosive: Bayern Munich are also said to be keeping a close eye on the BVB youngster.

According to transfer insider Gianluca Di Marzio, there is ongoing interest from the Munich club. The German record champions have reportedly been following the attacking player since well before his breakthrough in Dortmund.

“He is definitely on Bayern Munich’s list as well, because they already wanted him when he was still at Atalanta. He is a player they have had on their radar for a long time, and they have been monitoring him in recent months,” Di Marzio explained.

Inacio joined Dortmund in the summer of 2024 from Atalanta Bergamo’s youth setup. Even back then, Bayern Munich are said to have tried to lure the right-footed player to Munich. According to Di Marzio, there was contact between the two sides. Inacio is even said to have traveled to Munich, but ultimately chose BVB.

It seems Bayern’s interest has not faded. Di Marzio does not expect a move in the winter, but the situation could become interesting next summer.

“So it would not surprise me if Bayern Munich tried to sign an old transfer target. Not in January, but in the summer,” said the Italian transfer expert.

It comes as no surprise that Inacio is increasingly attracting interest. The attacking player was already able to showcase himself with the BVB first team during the closing stages of last Bundesliga season. He has also already made three competitive appearances in the current campaign. Added to that is his renewed call-up to the Italian national team.

BVB likely to resist a sale

Bayern Munich are apparently not the only top club tracking Inacio’s development. Inter Milan are also said to be interested. Di Marzio also considers a future move to the cash-rich Premier League conceivable, naming Arsenal and Manchester United as possible destinations.

However, a transfer is likely to be anything but easy for potential suitors. In Di Marzio’s view, Borussia Dortmund are well aware of the potential Inacio possesses.

“However, it is very difficult to agree a transfer with Dortmund, because they know they have a real jewel in their ranks,” the insider emphasized.

For BVB, the main focus will therefore likely remain on the 18-year-old’s continued sporting development for the time being. In a short space of time, Inacio has developed from a youth player into an option for the first team. If he continues on this path, interest from Europe’s top clubs is likely to keep growing.

A potential move by Bayern Munich in particular would add extra spice to the situation. There are still no concrete negotiations. But by next summer at the latest, Inacio’s future could become a hot transfer topic.
