The FC Koln youngster has expressed his desire to leave the club this summer in a bid to join UEFA Champions League finalists Bayern Munich.
Weiser is considered as one of the best young talents in the country at the moment and is a http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 Under-17 international. The player became the youngest ever player to feature for the FC Koln senior side when he made his debut
against Bayer Leverkusen in February earlier this year.
It is reported that Bayern Munich have shown interest in acquiring the player from Koln and the player is also eager to ply his trade at the Allianz Arena. The move could be well on the cards after Koln chairman revealed that the
youngster has submitted a transfer request to leave the club.
Weiser’s current contract with the club ends next summer and the club will certainly look to cash in on the player rather than letting him go on a free transfer next year.
Koln’s sporting director Claus Horstmann revealed that the midfielder has submitted a request to leave the club. He insisted that the player is keen to leave and the side will not stand in his way. The Billy Goats were relegated
to the 2.Bundesliga along with FC Kaiserslautern.
“Mitchell has filed his [transfer] request with us. There is nothing more to say,” Horstmann claimed.
Weiser had earlier claimed that he wants a move to Bayern Munich in the summer. He insisted that he is in talks with his current club over a prospective move and admitted that playing for Bayern Munich will be the next big step
in his career.
“I would still like to move to Bayern. But everything depends on the football club [Koln]. I think that there will soon be another meeting with FC Koln. This kind of opportunity is not one to miss. I could be in Munich training
with the professionals,” he concluded.
If Mitchell Weiser joins Bayern in this summer’s transfer window, he will be the club’s fifth signing of the summer after the Germans acquired the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Dante-c10236.
