Max Eberl confirms Sacha Boey will remain at Bayern Munich

Bayern Munich board member for sport Max Eberl confirmed that defender Sacha Boey will remain with the club following the close of the summer transfer window. Despite the team previously signaling that Boey was not part of head coach Vincent Kompany’s plans for the current season, the club was unable to facilitate a move. Galatasaray and Fulham both showed interest in the defender, but neither reached an agreement with Bayern before the deadline. While Boey was considered surplus to requirements alongside Bryan Zaragoza and João Palhinha, the others secured moves to Espanyol and Benfica, respectively. For now, the club will rely on Boey for defensive depth as they progress through their Champions League campaign. Bayern Munich maintains an interest in resolving his situation during the winter transfer window, though he currently remains a member of the squad.
