The Bayern Munich has placed Jules Koundé among its top targets to strengthen the right-back position and already knows that FC Barcelona will not make the operation easy. In Germany, they assure that the Bavarian club remains very attentive to the French defender, although the move will depend on the departure of Sacha Boey, a player who is not in Vincent Kompany's plans. Meanwhile, in Barcelona, the message is clear: the minimum price would be around 60 million euros.

Bayern Munich needs to move Boey before going for Jules Koundé

The sporting priority for Bayern Munich is to take a leap in quality on the right side. Kompany wants to establish Joshua Kimmich in the center of the field and avoid the German having to act as an emergency solution at full-back. That's why Jules Koundé emerges as a top-level option. He is reliable, competitive, fast in open play, and has experience to play in big matches. His evolution at FC Barcelona has turned him into a much more complete defender, capable of performing as both a full-back and a central defender.

The issue is that the Bavarian transfer market has a prerequisite. Sacha Boey must leave for the club to free up sporting and financial space. The Frenchman has not quite managed to secure a place in Munich and his future looks far from the Allianz Arena. Only if that situation progresses, will Bayern Munich truly activate the Jules Koundé path. The sports management has him on a list of favorites but does not want to open negotiations of this magnitude without first resolving their surplus.

FC Barcelona values Jules Koundé at 60 million euros

FC Barcelona does not consider Jules Koundé untouchable, but nor does it intend to give away one of its most stable defenders. The contract of the French international runs until 2030, giving negotiation strength to the Blaugrana board. According to reports in Spain, the club would set the bar at around 60 million euros, an amount that would help balance the books and, at the same time, finance other movements in the transfer market. The figure is not random; it reflects the player's sporting value and the difficulty of finding an immediate replacement.

The Premier League has also been monitoring his situation, but Bayern Munich can offer a very attractive context. They will compete for all titles, need a top-level full-back, and are looking for profiles with international experience. Jules Koundé fits that profile in terms of character, age, and performance. At 27 years old, he is experiencing an ideal maturity stage, with sufficient physicality to sustain long efforts and the reading ability to adapt to different match plans. For FC Barcelona, selling him would be a significant decision, not just financially.

A key move in the European transfer market

The operation has all the elements of a summer saga: a selling club with economic needs, a powerful buyer but conditioned by departures, and an elite player with a long contract. Bayern Munich does not want to rush, but knows that Jules Koundé is a difficult opportunity to repeat if FC Barcelona opens the door. The 60 million euros set the path and force the German giant to pay up. If Boey leaves and Kompany persists, the transfer market could witness a direct showdown between Munich and Barcelona.
