Everyone talks about the future of David Alaba and Jérôme Boateng, but what about Niklas Süle?
The FC Bayern central defender’s 25-year contract only runs until 2022. As long as Leon Goretzka’s. However, the difference between the two players is that the contract with the midfielder will be extended in the long term and Bayern have already announced it publicly. In Süle, on the other hand, the situation is more complicated.
Süle and Upamecano with the same advisor
In addition, there is the following explosiveness: His consulting agency Sports360 (formerly Sportstotal) also takes care of Dayot Upamecano, who Bayern want to please thanks to a 42.5 million buyout clause from RB Leipzig.
Explosive: Like Süle, he is right-handed and a central defender and, given that Hansi Flick prefers a left-handed and right-handed defensive center, Süle and Upamecano could compete from the summer.
His advisor Volker Struth said in the CHECK 24 One-two in SPORT1: “The competition at Bayern is very high. They not only have two good center-backs, but four or five. They are losing some of them now. It is normal that they face a center-back in the market.”
However, some questions need to be clarified beforehand: Will Upamecano really come or will one of the two English stakeholders prevail, including Chelsea FC? Will Jérôme Boateng, also right-handed, extend it again after all? Does Süle even want to stay? There are three options for the national player 29 times.
Option 1: Süle is extended for the long term!
Last Thursday, Süle’s advisers met with sports director Hasan Salihamidzic on Säbener Straße. Most of the conversation was about Upamecano. Then SPORT1-Information, however, both parties spoke about the future of Süle, which is currently still completely open.
Bayern have kept a low profile so far and have yet to go on the offensive regarding a contract extension. Then SPORT1-Information, the Munich-based company is aiming for long-term cooperation with Süle, but they want to wait for the development of Süle, which is currently not in top form and cannot outperform Boateng and Alaba at the moment.

It is also unclear whether Süle wants to extend it in the long term. The player keeps a low profile, but is playing poker for a new super contract. Another reason you decided to change your advisor in August 2020.
Option 2: Süle will be sold in the summer!
According to transfermarkt.de, the market value of the Frankfurt native is 48 million euros. If it becomes clear that the player or the club want to end the cooperation by the summer of 2022, a sale is likely to take place in six months, mostly due to financial constraints in the Corona times.
Süle has a market in the Premier League. In April 2019 SPORT1 reports that Manchester United had asked their then adviser Karlheinz Förster about Süle. Even before his € 20 million move to Munich in 2017, Chelsea FC were after him and even made him an offer.

At the time, Süle described the interest in Chelsea as “huge.” According to Sports box the sadness around new coach Thomas Tuchel should now have its eyes on him again.
Flick, FCB coach: “He speaks for one of our players when other clubs show interest. We will see how everything unfolds and where he sees his future.”
Option 3: Süle is free in 2022!
The most unlikely variant! For the player, this option is financially lucrative, because in a year and a half, Süle would be churning out a considerable amount of cash at his new club. However, Bayern cannot and will not be able to afford another free signing after Alaba and Javi Martínez, perhaps even Boateng.
Conclusion: A fixed transfer from Upamecano will cause a domino effect at Bayern and could spell the end of FCB for Boateng, but not for Süle. Munich is unlikely to start the new season with all three.
Unless Flick, lefty Lucas Hernandez, is enough. In this case, Bayern would have four central defenders plus Paris newcomer Tanguy Nianzou.
