FC Bayern Target Leeds Defender Tarik Muharemović, per TEAMtalk
FC Bayern Munich has identified 23-year-old Leeds United central defender Tarik Muharemović as a primary transfer target, with discussions potentially opening as early as the winter window, according to English outlet TEAMtalk as reported by Ligaportal.
From Austria and Italy to the Premier League
Muharemović was born in Ljubljana, Slovenia, on February 28, 2003, and began his youth career at Austria Kärnten and Austria Klagenfurt before moving to the youth setup of Austrian Bundesliga club Wolfsberger AC in 2019, where he made six appearances for the senior team and ten for the reserves. He subsequently joined Juventus Turin’s youth system before breaking out professionally at Sassuolo, catching the eye of English club Leeds United.
Valuation and Competition From Inter Milan
At Leeds United, the 21-time Bosnia and Herzegovina international has immediately established himself as a regular starter, playing every minute across seven fixtures in the new Premier League season and scoring one goal, as detailed by Fussballdaten. That rapid rise has pushed his current valuation to 60 million euros according to club assessments. In addition to Bayern Munich’s interest, Italian champions Inter Milan have also entered the race for the left-footed central defender, according to TEAMtalk and oe24.
Bayern Munich Targets Muharemović Despite Leeds Winter Reluctance
While LAOLA1 notes that Bayern Munich’s sporting leadership—including sporting director Christoph Freund, who is familiar with Muharemović from his previous tenure at Red Bull Salzburg—views the defender as a top target, a January sale remains complicated. Leeds United considers a winter departure unlikely after investing heavily in the player just months prior, making a potential bidding war more probable at the conclusion of the current season.
