The club like his profile and are monitoring his development, seeing how things progress with him. There are no negotiations yet. Gruda can play on the wing and at #10, that’s why his profile is interesting for Bayern. Technically, Gruda is still a Brighton player, but should he make a certain number of appearances, he’d automatically become a RB Leipzig player. For FC Bayern, Gruda is a medium-term topic – for now, they’ll continue to watch his development – and if they decide to make a serious push at some point, they’d contact Leipzig.

He has made just two appearances for the Blues this season.Sky Germany refutes Prestianni report (Sky Germany via @iMiaSanMia)Sky Germany is denying that Bayern Munich has interest in Benfica winger Gianluca Prestianni:According to @SkySportDE responding to recent reports from Portugal and Argentina, Gianluca Prestianni is currently not a hot topic of discussion at FC Bayern.Aside of the report we covered in the Schmankerl on Wednesday, this also emerged on Thursday from TyC Sports (via @iMiaSanMia): Bayern, PSG and several Premier League clubs are closely monitoring Benfica winger Gianluca Prestianni (20), with Paris and Bayern being the frontrunners. Prestianni’s performances have attracted a lot of interest, and a move to a top club is a possibility, despite a contract until 2029 and a renewal in the works.Prestianni’s history made him seem like an odd target for the Bavarians, but stranger things have happened. While it seems like a long shot, we will continu
