Bayern Munich are reportedly still in contact with the camp of Manchester United teenager JJ Gabriel, according to CF Bayern Insider. The forward has a range of suitors, and Bayern are among the top three clubs still in the race, which complicates earlier talk of a move to Real Madrid. According to Caughtoffside.com.
Gabriel’s future stays open as Bayern remain in the race for United teenager
The latest update shifts the picture from a few days ago, when Sport reported that JJ Gabriel had turned down Paris Saint-Germain and was looking most likely to join Real Madrid. Christian Falk‘s newest report suggests the situation is more open than that, leaving Bayern with a genuine chance.
CF Bayern Insider says Gabriel has a range of suitors, with Bayern among the top three clubs still in the race for his signature. The Bild journalist has exclusively told the outlet that the Bavarian giants remain in contact with the player’s camp over a potential move.
The outlet’s report notes that Christoph Freund has publicly shared his admiration for the youngster, and that Bayern are committed to developing players for the future. For a 16-year-old forward, the choice of next club could prove crucial to his development.
The update arrives a day after United’s 3-2 comeback victory over Roma in the Champions League. Supporters would be disappointed to see a player so young looking to leave Old Trafford this early in his career, yet his next destination is still undecided.
