Bayern Munich are being linked with a move for FC Midtjylland striker Franculino, with the probability of a transfer currently rated at 50% according to the latest data.
The 21-year-old centre-forward, who represents Guinea-Bissau and also holds Portuguese nationality, is attracting interest after a sharp rise in his valuation, which now stands at €22.00m. Bayern are reported to be monitoring his situation at Midtjylland as they assess long-term options in attack ahead of future windows.
Franculino is under contract with the Danish Superliga side, but no expiry date is listed in the available information, leaving open the possibility that he could move either for a substantial fee or, further down the line, as a free agent if no extension is agreed. For now, any switch to the Bundesliga remains at the rumour stage, with no agreement in place between the clubs.
The left-footed forward, who wears the No 7 shirt for Midtjylland, has enjoyed a rapid rise since leaving Benfica’s youth system. After progressing from Benfica’s U17s to their U19s and U23s, he joined Midtjylland in 2023 and has seen his market value climb from €1.20m in September 2023 to its current €22.00m as of mid-December 2025.
Franculino has been playing his club football in Denmark’s top tier after formative years in Portugal, giving him experience in two European leagues by the age of 21. Born in Bissau on 28 June 2004 and standing at 1.86m, he profiles as a modern central striker, operating primarily through the middle of the attack.
Should Bayern choose to firm up their interest, the move would represent a significant step up for Franculino and could accelerate his development, potentially redefining both his reputation in European football and his long-term career trajectory.
