August 23rd – According to Bayern Munich’s follow-up reporter Michel Schrorl from “Bild,” Charlotte FC from Major League Soccer had inquired with Bayern Munich about midfielder Leon Goretzka. Previously, there had been rumors of the player’s departure.
But the reporter claims that Goretzka himself has no intention of leaving. He wants to maintain his ambition and continue playing in high-level European leagues. Therefore, moving to MLS is not an option for the player.
Previously, Goretzka did not appear on Bayern’s roster for their last friendly. Bayern’s Sporting Director’s response regarding the player’s future was also ambiguous, but the player himself has clearly stated that he wants to stay at Bayern.
The 29-year-old Goretzka came through the youth ranks of German club Bochum, before moving to Schalke 04. In 2018, he joined Bayern Munich on a free transfer, winning five Bundesliga titles, one Champions League title, and other honors with the club. Last season, he played 42 times for Bayern, including 35 starts, scoring six goals and providing nine assists. His current market value is 30 million euros.
