Bayern Reopens Interest in Sergiño Dest
Reports say Bayern is assessing a fee near €18–25m and any move would hinge on clearing squad space and Dest finishing his World Cup duty.
Overview
- Multiple outlets reported this week that Bayern are 'kicking the tires' on PSV right-back Sergiño Dest and have not opened formal talks with PSV.
- Journalists and reports place Dest’s potential value roughly between €18 million and €25 million, with some outlets citing around €18m specifically.
- Barcelona stands to gain from the deal because it kept a sell-on clause when it sold Dest to PSV, which could translate to about €3.5m if the fee is roughly €18m.
- Bayern’s interest is linked to a parallel pursuit of PSV midfielder Ismael Saibari and clubs could explore a combined operation involving both players.
- Any concrete steps are likely to wait until after the World Cup while Dest is with the USMNT, and Bayern would first need to free squad space by moving players out.
