Bayern Munich has included Augsburg's goalkeeper Finn Dahmen in their agenda to strengthen the goalkeeping position in light of the possible retirement of Manuel Neuer at the end of the current season. The Bayern's transfer market will focus on renewing several positions.

As revealed by the magazine Kicker, the Munich board is considering the goalkeeper as an option for the experienced backup position, although formal discussions have not yet been initiated between the parties.

Restructuring of Bayern Munich's goalkeeping after the Neuer era

Bayern Munich's sports planning responds to indicators of Manuel Neuer's retirement in June 2027, which would also result in the departure of the secondary goalkeeper Sven Ulreich. Faced with this generational change scenario, the sports commission seeks to hire a long-term starter alongside an alternative with Bundesliga experience.

The Augsburg goalkeeper fits the profile of a backup goalkeeper after establishing himself in the German first division. His current contract expires in June 2027, and his market value on Transfermarkt stands at €12.00 million.

Bundesliga competition and Augsburg's stance

Despite Bayern Munich's interest, other German clubs like RB Leipzig and VfB Stuttgart have also monitored the situation of the 28-year-old goalkeeper to add competition in their respective goalkeeping positions.

Augsburg's board has not received official offers for the player, citing the one-year remaining duration of his contract. The final transfer cost will depend on the negotiations held before the summer market of 2027.

Bayern Munich's technical department will wait for Manuel Neuer's final decision on his retirement between the months of November and December 2026. If the captain's retirement is confirmed, Bayern Munich's board will engage with Finn Dahmen's representation starting in January 2027.
