Now we know"},"content":{"rendered":"

According to a report from L\u2019Equipe (as captured by @iMiaSanMia<\/a>), Bayern Munich<\/a> really was taking a wild swing when trying to get Paris Saint-Germain star Bradley Barcola earlier this summer. <\/p>\n

How wild? <\/p>\n

Well, maybe so wild that it was a little misguided: <\/p>\n

\n

Linked heavily to a potential move to Bayern over the past weeks, \u2018there\u2019s no world where Bradley Barcola would leave PSG this summer\u2019. The winger and the French club are set for new contract talks in the coming weeks that could make him one of the top 5 highest paid players at PSG.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

On the surface, there is no harm with shooting for the stars, but the time spent on chasing Barcola might have been better used on more realistic targets. Still, it is hard to knock a club for at least trying when it is trying to transition to a new era \u2014 and also trying desperately to find a new left-wing. <\/p>\n

Looking for more thoughts and discussion on Bayern Munich\u2019s recent rejections with bids on on VfB Stuttgart\u2019s Nick Woltemade and Liverpool<\/a>\u2019s Luis Diaz, plus some talk about the heat that Max Eberl and the fellas are facing \u2014 plus a discussion on why Nestory Irankunda might not have worked out and also why Bayern needs to be on high alert with Paul Wanner?
