Bayern Munich are set to part ways with Raphaël Guerreiro at the end of the season, making the 32-year-old a free agent and an attractive option in the market.
Juventus leading the race
According to reports, Juventus have already made initial contact with the player’s representatives.
- Proposed salary: ~€3 million/year
- Current Bayern salary: ~€4.2 million (net)
While this would represent a pay cut, Juventus are offering a clear sporting role and Serie A stability.
Benfica monitoring situation
Benfica are also tracking Guerreiro, but remain cautious.
Key concerns include:
- age (32)
- injury history
- long-term value
Their interest is real, but not yet fully committed.
Role at Bayern
Since joining from Borussia Dortmund in 2023, Guerreiro has:
- made 89 appearances
- scored 12 goals
Under Vincent Kompany, he has been used as a tactical utility player, capable of operating as:
- left-back
- central midfielder
- wide playmaker
However, he never fully secured a starting role in Bayern’s star-studded lineup.
Market value and appeal
Guerreiro’s appeal lies in:
- versatility
- technical quality
- experience at top European level
For clubs looking for depth and flexibility without a transfer fee, he represents a low-risk, high-value opportunity.
Outlook
The decision now hinges on priorities:
- Juventus: immediate integration into a competitive squad
- Benfica: emotional return + controlled role
- Other clubs: potential late entrants in the free-agent market
