Jules Koundé Transfer from FC Barcelona to FC Bayern München
Jules Kounde is experiencing a difficult period at Barcelona, having started just twice this season and played fewer than 300 minutes. During the summer, Barcelona would have been willing to listen to suitable offers for Kounde, but at that time, he had no intention of leaving. According to reports in Spain, Kounde has begun reconsidering his future because Hansi Flick is unlikely to drop Eric Garcia unless he suffers a serious injury. Barcelona need funds and are prepared to consider offers mid-season, even if it means weakening the team. Bayern have also reportedly begun considering a possible move for Kounde.
