Bournemouth are monitoring Bryan Zaragoza’s situation at Bayern Munich | OneFootball

Bryan Zaragoza is surplus to requirements at Bayern Munich, and it appears that the Spaniard is nearing the exit door. Matteo Moretto reports that while there is no agreement between Celta Vigo and the Bundesliga champions, Bournemouth have entered the race to sign the 23-year-old.

The Premier League side, who overperformed last season after finishing third, are coached by Spaniard Andoni Iraola. Bournemouth are monitoring the player’s situation but Moretto adds that Zaragoza would prefer to remain in Spain.

It was reported last month that Bayern Munich are actively looking to sell Zaragoza after he wasn’t included in their FIFA Club World Cup squad following his loan spell at Osasuna last season, where he scored one goal and provided six assists in 27 La Liga games. Bayern’s Max Eberl also stated: “We are open to a transfer,” in regards to the player’s future.

The Spaniard played just 171 minutes of football for Bayern Munich, all under Thomas Tuchel, following his €13m permanent transfer from Granada is July 2023. This is after the Bundesliga side paid around €4m to bring the Spaniard in on loan early.
