FC Bayern could still be active in the transfer market this coming winter. Although club officials have repeatedly emphasized that new signings in January are not a priority, the Munich-based club is apparently looking into a highly intriguing offensive player. The focus is on Estevao of Chelsea FC.

As reported by the British website TEAMtalk, the German record champions are among several top European clubs monitoring the situation of the 19-year-old Brazilian. According to the report, Bayern has already made a discreet inquiry to explore the possibilities of a potential transfer.

This comes against the backdrop of a tight personnel situation in Munich’s offense. With Luis Díaz, Serge Gnabry, and Ismael Saibari sidelined, several key players are currently missing. While Jamal Musiala is set to return following his muscle injury, Bayern will have to continue improvising with their remaining attacking options for a while longer.

Bayern Inquires About Chelsea Gem Estevao

According to information from TEAMtalk, the Munich club has already made initial inquiries about the Brazilian international’s situation. There are also reports of contact having been made with people close to the youngster.

However, no concrete negotiations between the two clubs have been reported so far. Rather, it appears to be an initial exploration of the transfer market.

Bayern are apparently not alone in their interest. FC Barcelona, Atlético Madrid, and Paris Saint-Germain are also said to be closely following the attacking player’s progress.

Estevao is considered one of the greatest Brazilian attacking talents of his generation. The technically gifted right winger possesses tremendous speed and stands out in particular for his dribbling ability.

At Chelsea FC, however, things haven’t gone as planned for the 19-year-old so far. Under coach Xabi Alonso, the Brazilian has seen only sporadic playing time. Through the end of October, Estevao had to settle mostly for brief appearances in the Premier League.

It wasn’t until the 2-0 win against Manchester United in late October that the youngster made his first start.

Will Bayern make a move for him this winter after all?

For Bayern Munich, signing Estevao would be particularly interesting from a long-term squad-planning perspective. The Brazilian could increase Munich’s offensive flexibility while also providing an additional option on the wings.

However, a potential transfer would by no means be straightforward. Estevao is under contract with Chelsea FC and is considered one of the most promising talents at the top English club.

It remains to be seen whether the London club would even be willing to let the 19-year-old go. Furthermore, Bayern’s management has so far shown no urgent need to make moves during the winter transfer window.

Sports Director Max Eberl and Director of Football Christoph Freund have recently emphasized repeatedly that they fundamentally have confidence in the existing roster.

However, the recent injuries could lead to a change of heart.

In addition to Estevao, Junior Kroupi of AFC Bournemouth has also recently been linked with the German record champions.

The renewed transfer rumors at least suggest that the Munich club continues to closely monitor the market and evaluate potential options.
