Boateng returns to Bayern!

The club from Munich resolved the centre defenders' deficit...
Bayern did not finish the transfer window well. The departures of Lucas Hernandez and Benjamin Pavard were not properly compensated, Thomas Tuchel was left with only three classic stoppers (De Ligt, Upamecano, Kim), which started to take its toll.
In the DFB Cup match against Preussen Munster, the pair of central defenders were Leon Goretzka and Noussair Mazraoui?!
For yesterday's derby against RB Leipzig, Matthijs de Ligt was not in the competition for the team. The injury is not serious, but it became clear to the people from the club that they had to react urgently. There are few choices, it's clear as day, the rules allow the registration of only free agents, so Bayern decided to bring back one such - their former first team member Jerome Boateng (35).
As Florian Plettenberg reported late last night, Boateng has already completed the first part of the medical examinations - successfully! This means that the contract will be signed within the next 24 hours. The same source states that the only thing that is not clear yet is whether Bayern will tie the former national team player to a contract until January, or until the end of the season.
Jerome Boateng had the option to go to the Middle East, he received several calls, however when there was a hint that he could return to Munich, there were no dilemmas.
The experienced stopper spent the last two years in Lyon, before becoming a free agent this summer. Previously, he wore the Bayern jersey for 10 years.
A reminder - on the last day of the transfer window, the German champions negotiated the arrival of Armel Bella-Kotchap and Trevoh Chalobah. Both deals failed. All that led to this development of events and opened the door to Boateng's return.
