FC Bayern apparently continues to explore the possibility of signing Tarik Muharemovic. The 23-year-old center back from Leeds United had already been linked with the German record champions in early October. Although the Bosnian national team player only moved to England last summer, Bayern Munich is reportedly continuing to closely monitor his development.

As transfer insider Ekrem Konur reports, FC Bayern is among several top European clubs showing interest in Muharemovic. According to the report, club officials are continuing to monitor the defender’s situation closely.

However, Bayern are apparently not alone in their pursuit of the left-footed player. FC Barcelona, Liverpool FC, and Inter Milan are also said to be interested in the Bosnian international. Interest in Muharemovic thus appears to be growing further.

Bayern is keeping an eye on the 40-million-defender

Just last summer, Leeds United invested around 40 million euros to bring Muharemovic from US Sassuolo to the Premier League.

The center back signed a long-term contract with the English club through 2031 and quickly became an important part of the team. In all eight Premier League matches so far this season, Muharemovic has played the full 90 minutes. The 23-year-old has also recorded two assists.

The defender also demonstrated his offensive skills in the League Cup. He scored a goal himself in the 3–6 loss to Chelsea FC.

The Bosnian’s strong performances have apparently not gone unnoticed by scouts from top European clubs.

As early as the beginning of October, Muharemovic had been linked as a potential new signing for Bayern Munich. At the time, however, the English website Teamtalk reported that Leeds United was not considering selling the defender.

Bayern transfer depends on the team’s own defense

It remains to be seen whether Munich’s alleged interest will actually lead to concrete transfer efforts. FC Bayern is generally well-positioned at center back with Dayot Upamecano, Jonathan Tah, and Minjae Kim.

However, the personnel situation is certainly intriguing. While Upamecano is considered a sure starter, Tah and Kim are currently locked in a tight battle for the second starting spot.

In addition, there has been repeated speculation in the past about possible changes in Munich’s central defense. An additional center back would therefore be of particular interest if one of the current players were to leave the club.

At the moment, however, there is little to suggest a potential transfer. Muharemovic is under contract with Leeds through 2031 and has already established himself as a key player there.

For FC Bayern, the 23-year-old thus remains an interesting prospect for the future for the time being. Whether Munich actually intensifies its efforts will likely depend largely on how its own central defense develops going forward.
