Report: Sacha Boey chooses Bayern Munich over Ligue 1 and Premier League interest

Report: Sacha Boey chooses Bayern Munich over Ligue 1 and Premier League interest

The 25‑year‑old French right‑back, under contract with the German champions until June 2028, has reportedly declined offers because he prefers to remain in Bavaria and fight for his place.

Boey's situation at Bayern has been complicated. After joining from Galatasaray in January 2024 on a long‑term deal, he has struggled to secure regular first‑team football. Despite a significant transfer fee paid by Bayern, and interest from the Premier League and Ligue 1, the defender has made only a handful of appearances this season and has not played competitively since November 1, 2025.

Reports suggest that Bayern would be willing to sell the full‑back for a fee in the region of fifteen to twenty million euros, with clubs like Crystal Palace and Everton among those showing interest. However, Boey's preference appears to be staying put, even while only used sporadically.

The Frenchman's standing in the squad has also been the subject of debate. There have been claims of friction with head coach Vincent Kompany, including an incident that led to him being sidelined from selection, contributing to his lack of minutes on the pitch.

From a tactical standpoint, Boey offers pace and attacking intent down the right flank - traits that Bayern value - but inconsistent form and limited opportunities have made it hard for him to cement his role.

Bayern's depth at full‑back means competition is fierce, and the window closing without a move could give Boey a fresh chance to stake his claim in the coming months.
