Bayern Munich, other European powers, after Arsenal’s Hector Bellerin (Daily Express)
We know that Bayern Munich are interested in a right back to transfer in this summer. To date, the club has been sniffing around young right backs with tremendous upside like Ajax’s Sergiño Dest and Shakhtar Donetsk’s Dodo. Now, a report comes from England that the Bavarians are interested in signing Hector Bellerin from Arsenal.
Arsenal signed Cedric Soares on a permanent transfer, so the club is looking to offload Bellerin. Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus are also reported to be interested in signing him.
It’s hard to see Bayern targeting Bellerin with younger and better players on the market.
Flick backs Robert Lewandowski for the Ballon d’Or (Bild)
After the DFB-Pokal final in Berlin, Hansi Flick was asked whether Robert Lewandowski might win the Ballon d’Or this year. Flick replied, “If you look at everything he has achieved, you should think about it. Why not someone from the Bundesliga for once? He meets all the requirements.”
In a year without a World Cup or Euros, Lewandowski’s feats for his club stand an even higher chance of recognition. And this year they are almost all unmatched:
- 51 goals in 43 games, the best in Europe.
- 34 goals in the Bundesliga, his personal best, and the top scorer for the fourth year in a row. Lewy is rivaled only by Ciro Immobile, who has scored 29 goals for Lazio with 8 games to play.
- 11 goals in the Champions League. It is unlikely that anyone will beat that number in the final rounds when the competition resumes.

Barca’s CEO blames VAR
@jmbartomeu: "In the best league in the world, the VAR is not up to the task. It is not very equitable and it seems as if it is always favoring one side." pic.twitter.com/8CAT5OPVjZ
