WHAT NEXT FOR BAYERN?
Bayern haven't had the best transfer window this season as they lost out on many of their targets; from rejections by Simons, Nico Williams and Kaoru Mitoma to Newcastle United sweeping in to sign Nick Woltemade, a player they launched three bids for. Should the reigning German champions don't act quickly, Roma or Leipzig will clinch the chance to sign George, leaving Luis Diaz as the only option to go to in the left wing.
