Bayern Munich eye Swish-Angolan midfielder Johan Manzambi as Leon Goretzka successor
FC Bayern Munich are reportedly targeting Swiss midfielder Johan Manzambi of SC Freiburg, as the German champions look to prepare for the likely departure of Leon Goretzka at the end of the season.
According to Swiss outlet Blick, the 20‑year‑old midfielder, who is of Angolan descent, has impressed this season with nine goal contributions and strong performances that have also earned him a place in the Switzerland national football team.
His emergence has attracted attention from several European heavyweights, including Paris Saint-Germain, Arsenal FC, and Chelsea FC.
Manzambi’s market value has surged dramatically over the course of the campaign, rising from around €8 million at the start of the season to an estimated €30 million, reflecting his rapid development and growing reputation.
The Freiburg midfielder is tied to a long-term contract until 2030, without a release clause, meaning any club hoping to secure his services, including Bayern Munich, will likely need to make a significant financial offer to convince SC Freiburg to part ways with one of Europe’s most exciting young midfield talents.
