Multiple reports link Bayern Munich to Wolfsburg’s Ridle Baku, but Wolves might not be ready to sell

We waited for the dust to settle a bit on this one as rumors were flying around like crazy, but depending what you believe, Bayern Munich could be rekindling its interest in Wolfsburg right-back Ridle Baku.

These rumors became significant because the story broke earlier in the week that Julian Nagelsmann will — eventually — be implement a back-three based system, which will require wing-backs.

With Alphonso Davies set to anchor down the left-side, Baku seems to be emerging as a candidate for the right wing-back position per Sport Bild’s Christian Falk.

Tz reported (as captured by @iMiaSanMia) that the rumored fee for Baku to be approximately €20 million. Baku’s current deal runs through 2025 without a release clause.

Finally, Sky’s Florian Plettenberg chimed in with his own report, which states that Wolfsburg has no intention of selling Baku and that his price would exceed €20 million:

Ridle me this Bayern Munich fans...whose report do you believe?
