Bayern Munich employs four center-backs—Matthijs de Ligt, Kim Min-jae, Eric Dier, and Dayot Upamecano—and all four of them are right-footed. Naturally, the club is now looking for a left-footed center-back—or maybe someone who can play there regardless of their dominant foot. Which means, all signs point to…Jonathan Tah from Bayer Leverkusen?
With four right-footed centre-backs in the squad, Bayern are actually looking for a left centre-back, ideally a left footed one, however, the club does not see a good market opportunity, with the likes of Bastoni being too expensive. Therefore, Bayern are after Jonathan Tah, who can play at left center-back despite being right footed.

The Bavarians nearly signed Pau Torres from Villarreal last season but he ultimately linked up with his coach Unai Emery at Aston Villa.
