'Great opportunity to work with Kim Min-jae' 23-year-old RB benefits from 'loose defensive line'
-
French right back Sacha Boye (23, Galatasaray) will join forces with Kim Min-jae (28, Bayern Munich).
European soccer transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano announced on July 27 (ET) that "Sacha Boye has agreed to join Munich".
The Bavarians are close to securing their most urgent defensive transfusion.
On the 25th, the Bavarians managed a narrow 1-0 victory over mid-table Berlin. They closed the gap on Leverkusen to four points.
But it wasn't all smiles for Munich that day. In the 41st minute of the second half, defensive right-back Konrad Reimer went down with an injury, 카지노사이트 prompting Thomas Tuchel to bring on defensive midfielder Alexandar Pavlovic to fill the void.
Reimer is reportedly out for six weeks with a calf tendon problem.
With their right fullback depth thin, the Bavarians have been on the hunt for a replacement quickly and are close to signing the 23-year-old.
Kieran Trippier (Newcastle United) was the Bavarians' number one target for a right-back, but disagreements over the transfer fee led to the move being abandoned. The Bavarians offered €15 million, but Newcastle wanted more than €218 million. Unwilling to splash the cash on the 33-year-old, the Bavarians opted to keep their prospects instead.
France's Sacha Boye, from Ligue 1 side Ligue 1 side Stade de Renouce, had a good season last season. He scored one goal and provided four assists in 31 appearances in the Turkic Ligue 1. He established himself as one of Galatasaray's main defenders and helped the club win the league title.
He has continued that form this season. Sashavoy has started all 19 league games (1 goal). Galatasaray are tied for first place with Fenerbahçe with 57 points.
"The agreement between Munich and Galatasaray has been finalized," Romano reported, adding that "Sasha Boye considers a move to Munich to be the opportunity of a lifetime." The transfer fee is expected to be around €29 million, pending a medical.
