Bayern, who will reportedly be without makeshift right-back Konrad Laimer against Augsburg this weekend, look to strike quickly on the transfer market after attempts to acquire Newcastle United right-back Kieran Trippier failed and negotiations over former Leipzig and current PSG fullback Nordi Mukiele reached a total stalemate. Whether the deal shall be a sale or loan remains unknown at this point.
When Sky initially reported on Bayern's interest in the player, it was said that the Bavarians backed off after demands for a sale by the Turkish club. This could still happen, though it's also possible that the FCB have talked Galatasaray in a loan with a purchase option. Boey was not in his team's squad for this evening's league fixture. The official reason given was a foot injury.
