"Bayern Munich confirmed last month that Leon Goretzka will leave the club after the end of the season once his contract expires. The German international was heavily linked with a move away from Bayern throughout the January window, but the midfielder decided to stay put. We previously reported that Atletico Madrid were seriously interested in signing him, but they were not willing to pay Bayern's asking price."
"Despite signing Conor Gallagher in January, Tottenham were looking to add more players during the winter transfer window, and wanted to bring Goretzka to the north London club. There were even suggestions that Goretzka's representatives had made contact with Spurs, and talks took place over a potential move. Christian Falk exclusively told CFBayern Insider that Premier League leaders Arsenal were seriously interested in signing Goretzka before deadline day."
"However, at that point, the former Schalke midfielder had already informed Bayern that he wanted to stay for the rest of the season and was not looking to move. There is a strong chance that Goretzka could move to Arsenal next summer if the north London club make an offer for him. The German midfielder believes his playing Style fits the Premier League perfectly, so a potential move cannot be ruled out."
Leon Goretzka will leave Bayern Munich when his contract expires at season's end. Atletico Madrid showed interest but did not meet Bayern's asking price. Tottenham explored a winter move and held talks with his representatives, while Arsenal registered serious interest before the deadline. Goretzka chose to remain at Bayern for the remainder of the season. A summer move to Arsenal remains likely if an offer arrives, since Goretzka believes his playing style suits the Premier League. Since 2018 he has made 292 appearances and scored 47 goals for Bayern, winning six Bundesliga titles and one Champions League.
