Bayern Munich Pursues Promising Young Striker as Alternative to Vlahovic and Jackson for Kane Backup Role
New Target Emerges
Bayern Munich is reportedly eyeing Franculino Dju, a forward from Midtjylland, as they brace for the possible departure of star striker Harry Kane. This shift comes as Nicolas Jackson is expected to return to Chelsea, and Dusan Vlahovic’s position on their list of potential recruits diminishes.
Changes in Transfer Strategy
As per reports from BILD, head coach Vincent Kompany is anticipating life without Kane, prompting the club to consider the 21-year-old Dju as a viable option.
Hesitations Regarding Jackson
Bayern appears to be reluctant to secure Jackson from Chelsea on a permanent deal, even though they possess an option to acquire him for €65 million.
Vlahovic’s Diminished Prospects
Juventus forward Dusan Vlahovic was also mentioned as a candidate to succeed Kane, especially since he is entering the last year of his contract, but he has now dropped in prominence on Bayern’s shortlist.
Dju’s Impressive Performance
Dju has made a significant impact this season, netting 19 goals and contributing three assists in 26 appearances for Midtjylland.
