Experienced defender Jerome Boateng is on the brink of a sensational return to Bayern Munich, marking a homecoming after a brief stint in France.
Boateng's departure from the Bundesliga giants was confirmed by sporting director Hasan Salihamidžić in April 2021, as his contract was slated to conclude in the summer of the same year with no prospects of extension.
Subsequently, on 1 September 2021, Boateng embarked on a new chapter, wearing the colors of French side Lyon, courtesy of a seamless free transfer. The defender inked a deal that bound him to Lyon until the conclusion of June 2023.
Now, as the June date drew near, Lyon officially announced Boateng's departure, paving the way for a potential reunion with his former club.
According to journalist Florian Plettenberg, Bayern Munich's management is not only keen but actively engaged in orchestrating Boateng's return, underlining the profound interest the club harbors in securing the experienced player's services once more.
