Bayern Add Forest’s Murillo to Shortlist as Chelsea Monitor £43m-Rated Defender

With a 2029 deal in place, Forest’s valuation near £43m makes a January sale unlikely.

Overview

  • Reports say Bayern Munich have identified the 23-year-old Brazilian as a realistic target for next summer at a fee in the £43–43.5m range.
  • Bayern’s planning is tied to uncertainty over Dayot Upamecano’s contract and outside interest in Kim Min-jae.
  • Chelsea are keeping tabs on Murillo as a ball‑playing option for Enzo Maresca, with potential centre‑back changes under review including Axel Disasi.
  • Nottingham Forest extended Murillo’s contract to 2029 and are expected to consider talks only if their valuation is met.
  • Spanish reports add that Real Madrid are tracking him for 2026 but remain cautious about a high transfer fee.
