Bayern Munich’s 3-2 win over VFL Wolfsburg in the very first Bundesliga video game of the season triggered a great deal of fans to end up being anxious, as the efficiencies of the center back duo Kim Min-jae and Dayot Upamecano were greatly slammed in the middle of the act of gifting away a 1-0 lead within a couple of minutes of the 2nd half. Combine this with the sale of Matthjis De Ligt, who the fanbase took care of enough to develop a petition with over 70,000 petitions to keep, and it begins to make good sense why fans have a hard time to believe in Bayern’s backline for the upcoming season.

One prospective support for this position was the 35-year-old Mats Hummels, whose agreement at Borussia Dortmund ended previously this summertime, has previous experience betting Bayern and presently even resides in Munich with his household. However, according to Fabrizio Romano, this will not be an alternative any longer as AS Roma look set to land the German center back:

AS Roma have actually reserved medical tests for Mats Hummels on Wednesday, travel likewise prepared.

After enhanced proposition sent out today, the club wishes to finish the offer after medical tests.

Here we go, anticipated quickly.

Hummels will obviously be generated to change ex-Manchester United center back Chris Smalling after he signed for some Saudi club, however it does appear like an odd relocation at stated value. Hummels has actually represented either Bayern or Dortmund for his whole profession, yet suddenly he is transferring to Italy. Still, AS Roma is a huge club and he will have the ability to play European football there. Let us hope Hummels manages the distinctions in between Germany and Italy much better than Leonardo Bonucci did, anyhow.
