Pep Guardiola is making preparations for the potential departure of Daniel Van Buyten, whose contract with Bayern Munich is set to expire in a few months. With an aging defensive sector, the Spanish coach is looking to reinforce his team for the upcoming season, and one name that has caught his attention is David Luiz.
According to Bild, Guardiola is counting on the fact that the Brazilian defender from Chelsea may not align with José Mourinho’s plans, making him a potential target for Bayern Munich. The Bayern coach is reportedly keen on bringing Luiz to the club.
However, Guardiola might face stiff competition in acquiring Luiz, as his former club, FC Barcelona, is also interested in strengthening its defense and has set its sights on the Brazilian player. This dual interest from two top European clubs could complicate Guardiola’s pursuit of David Luiz for Bayern Munich.
