The summer acquisition of Harry Kane has diminished Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting’s playing time at Bayern Munich, raising speculation about his potential departure during the winter transfer window. However, recent reports suggest that Bayern is keen to retain Choupo-Moting for the remainder of his contract, set to expire in June. The club values the striker’s contribution and would only consider a transfer if presented with a highly lucrative offer, which seems improbable.
Sky Sport journalist Florian Plettenberg indicates that Choupo-Moting and the club share a mutual understanding of his role in the squad, especially as Bayern competes on multiple fronts this season. Despite rumors of potential offloading, no concrete offers have been tabled for the striker. The club’s stance is reinforced by Choupo-Moting’s market value of €10 million, making any significant offer a requirement for consideration.
While Thomas Tuchel is in search of a hybrid right-back/center-back, Bayern Munich remains cautious about losing attacking options, considering Bayer Leverkusen’s strong performance in the Bundesliga title race. Choupo-Moting’s on-field contributions this season include three goals from 21 appearances across all competitions, primarily as a substitute.
Facing tough competition, Choupo-Moting has found it challenging to secure a regular starting spot, especially with the presence of Kane. Although Tuchel has experimented with starting both strikers, it has sparked mixed reactions from Bayern fans. Despite his limited opportunities, the striker remains committed, and Bayern’s strategic focus on retaining him suggests that he will likely stay put during the winter transfer window.
As Bayern navigates the challenges of a competitive season, Choupo-Moting’s presence in the squad becomes valuable, and any potential departure would require a substantial offer to alter the club’s stance.
