You have reached the top, and more storms to the top are anything but impossible.
Winning the triple doesn’t have to be the culmination of an era for Bayern Munich, it could only have been the beginning.
For years to come, coach Hansi Flick will be able to rely on a core of young, hungry top performers like Joshua Kimmich, Leon Goretzka and Serge Gnabry, bolstered by Leroy Sané, with exciting prospective players like Joshua Zirkzee, Michael Cuisance and others. .

SPORT1 it shows where Munich is even better positioned next season than last season, and which transfer construction sites are still open.
Where Bavaria gets even better:
Even stronger offense:
Philippe Coutinho, filling the gaps in luxury, leaves, the transfer of the king is coming: with Leroy Sané, FC Bayern now have the jewel in the offensive crown that they should have had last summer.
The rare additional class of the eddy, especially one on one, is well known. And Sané is doubly motivated: on the one hand, he will want to show that former coach Pep Guardiola was wrong by not betting on him in the decisive matches at Manchester City. On the other hand, you don’t want to remain the Bayern star who just missed out on a chance to be part of a Champions League winning team.
With Sané, Serge Gnabry and final hero Kingsley Coman, Flick has more than ever to choose from with the winger.
More options in defense:
David Alaba, who has outdone himself in a new position, and Jérôme Boateng, who has regained his strength, were a significant triple factor in the center-back position, and the quality will grow there in the next season even without the new ones. arrived.

Niklas Süle will be back in full shape after the cruciate ligament tear and this time he’s dying to play a formative role. The same applies to Lucas Hernández, 80 million men, haunted by similar bad luck, and the club’s coach, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, most recently at the SPORT1-Reinforced interview (“We are all convinced at the club that he is the right player”). Young newcomer Tanguy Nianzou is also competing for playing time.
If both Alaba and Boateng stick around, Flick has a top-notch pick, almost oversupplied, though nearly everyone can switch to other positions off or in the middle of the field.
Speaking of oversupply: Alexander Nübel is the new No. 2 and designated heir behind Manuel Neuer. It will continue to be debated how good this early change idea was from Nübel’s point of view. The new competitive pressure seems to have motivated Neuer to achieve new superior performances in advance.
Open construction sites:
Backup for Lewandowski:
Young Joshua Zirkzee stood out with four goals in twelve Bundesliga games, which he played in the Champions League, as well as a four-minute appearance in the group stage match against Tottenham.
In the best European clubs, it has recently become standard to have a second center forward on the team who is a little further away than Zirkzee or Jann-Fiete Arp, who is unlucky. The triple was without him, because Lewandowski was almost always fit, but continuing to build on him is a risk, especially since Thomas Müller, who was in the position alongside Zirkzee, and Ivan Perisic on loan, were more of an impromptu solution.
The problem with finding a 1b striker: you have to bring the necessary class, as well as the willingness to position yourself clearly behind the playful Lewandowski. It is not easy to find one.
New right back:
Joshua Kimmich can still do it, he proved it in the final Champions League streak, but in the long run he will return to focus more on defensive midfield, especially when Thiago’s pinch-out is complete.
Bayern have long been looking for another right-back option alongside Benjamin Pavard, who is also looking for another position in the middle. Álvaro Odriozola, on loan for the second half of the season, returns to Real Madrid, various talents such as Dodo or Sergino Dest were discussed, so far without result.
Occupying the outside position at the rear is traditionally a tricky business, the transfer market offers only a few players for whom the price-performance ratio is adequate. Of the kicker just came up with an internal solution: American talent Chris Richards, for whom retraining from center to right back could increase the chances of a breakthrough.
