Falk: Bayern is interested in Feyenoord right back Reid, and he may be used as a replacement if Boy is sold

November 17 According to a report from Falk, Bayern is interested in signing Feyenoord right back Givaro Red and may launch a serious attempt next summer.

The report stated that the 19-year-old right back is currently regarded as one of the hottest new stars in European football, and Bayern has shown strong interest. However, Bayern is unlikely to complete the deal in the winter window, and they may launch a serious attempt for Reid next summer.

Reid joined Feyenoord's youth training in 2023 and was later promoted to the first team. Last season, he played 33 times and scored 3 goals. So far this season, he has made 14 appearances in all competitions, which shows that Feyenoord attaches great importance to him.

Bayern's chief scout Niels Schmatek and his assistant Andre Hechelmann were in the stands of Stuttgart recently. They watched Stuttgart's Europa League game against Feyenoord to examine the full-back's performance.

Reid extended his contract at Feyenoord until 2029 in April this year, and his market value is approximately €20 million to €30 million (£16.63 million to £26 million). However, his price could rise to around £30m.

"Dutch Telegraph" recently reported that Arsenal and Manchester City have also joined the competition for the young defender, but Falke said that they cannot confirm this news at present.

Will Redd be an option for Bayern? The report pointed out that Bayern has sufficient personnel reserves at the full-back position. They have three right-backs, Laimer, Stanisic and Boy. Laimer has excelled for Bayern this season, while Stanisic has been used primarily as a left-back by Kompany.

However, Boy's future is far from certain. The 25-year-old right-back has made nine appearances in the Bundesliga this season, including five starts, but has failed to impress. In addition, Boy has lost his starting position after Stanisic returned from injury.

There is news that Boi may be sold in January or next summer, in which case Bayern may make a move on Reid as his potential replacement.
