Transfers for GW2:
With Musiala injured and Justvan on the bench, the midfield needs a shake up and transfers are focused on addressing this concern.
TRANSFER 1
JAMAL MUSIALA OUT, DANI OLMO IN
Olmo has a very good match against Stutgart at home. Last week, he was the best midfielder for Leipzig, scoring a goal and creating a chance in the loss to Leverkusen. Leipzig will be looking to bounce back and Olmo has the potential to have a great game.
TRANSFER 2
JULIAN JUSTVAN OUT, NATHAN NGOUMOU IN
Ngoumou looked sharp against Augsburg, making runs behind the defense and scoring a good goal. He has a tough game against Leverkusen, but at this value of 6.3M, he offers good attacking threat and is hard to ignore.
TRANSFER 3
ALEXANDER NÜBEL OUT, SVEN ULREICH IN
Nubel, who has a tough away game, makes way for Ulreich, who has an easier home game against Augsburg. Bayern kept a clean sheet against Bremen and have a good chance of keeping another against Augsburg, making Ulreich a safe pick this week.
TRANSFER 4
RIDLE BAKU OUT, ROLLAND SALLAI IN
Sallai was outstanding in Freiburg's match against Hoffenheim, scoring a goal and creating chances. A home game against Bremen will be a good opportunity for him to get an attacking return.
