Last summer, Bayern Munich was closely linked to defender Dean Huijsen, who ultimately inked a deal with Real Madrid.
His agent, Ali Barat, confirmed that Bayern Munich was in the mix.
”Bayern Munich, Liverpool, Tottenham, Newcastle…they all wanted Dean, to be honest. We had about seven big clubs. But when Real Madrid came along, it was an easy decision. There were many clubs, but with Madrid there was no doubt,” Barat told AS (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
Huijsen has settled in quite nicely for Real Madrid, starting in all four games where he was available until picking up a red card and serving a suspension in LaLiga on Saturday.
Bayern Munich will get some down time…not much, but some.
The Bavarians are not back in action until Friday against Werder Bremen, so a day or two of rest will not be such a bad thing for a squad coming off of an arduous week.
Let’s check in on where things stand with Bayern Munich and some other hot topics as well. This is what we have on tap for this edition of the Bavarian Podcast Works Show:
