Daniel Peretz needs out of Bavaria to get playing time. Can he remain in the Bundesliga?
Daniel Peretz has had a fairly productive time at Bayern Munich despite not having regular chances to see the field.
Since arriving in the 2023/24 season, Peretz has made just five starts and seven appearances total — perhaps the most high profile of those being his 72 minutes of relief work after Manuel Neuer’s red card in Bayern’s dramatic DFB-Pokal exit this season at the hands of Bayer Leverkusen.
While watching Bayern snap up successor candidates for Neuer to place in line in front of him, Peretz has turned his attention to future opportunities at least temporarily away from Bavaria. The 24-year-old could still be able to remain in the Bundesliga, however — per a report from Sky Sport DE, as captured by @iMiaSanMia:
Eintracht Frankfurt are interested in Daniel Peretz following Kauã Santos’ serious knee injury. Talks are already taking place. Southampton and RC Lens are also showing interest in the goalkeeper. Peretz is set to leave Bayern in the summer either through a loan or a permanent transfer with a buy-back clause. The keeper himself prefers a loan, ideally within the Bundesliga [@SkySportDE]
Santos, a 22-year-old Brazilian keeper, is in his second season with Eintracht Frankfurt and has started just eight times in the Bundesliga so far. He suffered what has been described as a “torn cruciate ligament” in Frankfurt’s Europa League defeat to Tottenham — and was himself filling in for German men’s national team keeper Kevin Trapp (34).
If Frankfurt and Dino Toppmöller — a former Bayern assistant who did not overlap with Peretz — feel confidently in Peretz, it could be the young keeper’s best opportunity to stay in Germany. But with a Ligue 1 and newly-demoted Championship side beckoning, it looks like Peretz will have his own pick of options.
Looking for more thoughts and discussion on Bayern Munich’s performance over the weekend against Mainz and where things stand in the Bundesliga? What about some chatter on whether or not bringing Leroy Sané back is a good idea? Finally, we hit on how Tom Bischof might fit in at Bayern Munich and whether or not that undermines the work being done on Bayern Munich’s campus.
