According to a report from El Chiringuito TV reporter Marcos Benito, Bayern Munich winger Bryan Zaragoza could be on the move to Valencia…quickly.
Zaragoza appears to have had trouble find a spot in Vincent Kompany’s plans for the 2024/25 campaign and after Saturday’s up-and-down individual performance against Tottenham Hotspur, it became clear that that Spaniard was likely not going to be able do enough to convince anyone he should get consistent minutes for the rest of the season.
Enter Valencia, who seems more than willing to bring Zaragoza back to Spain:

„When we look at the wings, it could be that Bryan might have a harder time getting a lot of playing time with us. We appreciate that he shows commitment and says, ‘I want to develop further and become a real Bayern player, but that will be difficult here if I’m not even in the squad.’ Therefore, we are trying to find the right loan for him.“ w/ @kerry_hau (in Seoul)
Many teams from abroad are keen on him. Girona and Valencia, the most concrete options at this stage with concrete talks.
Kingsley Coman, Serge Gnabry, Leroy Sané, Mathys Tel, Michael Olise, and Arijon Ibrahimović are all wingers who could see playing time this season. Moreover, Jamal Musiala and Thomas Muller can also play the position when needed. Bayern Munich is closely pursuing Rennes winger Désiré Doué as well.
For Zaragoza, it seems like a great opportunity to take a loan to Valencia.
