Bayern Munich have had a frustrating summer transfer window until now as they have suffered some major rejections before eventually securing Luis Diaz from Liverpool.
They have also made a couple signings early on in the window when they signed Tom Bischof and Jonathan Tah.
While many fans believed that the German champions would push for more signings once the Diaz deal was done, Bayern bosses have indicated that they are not looking for any major transfers.
On Thursday, the Bavarians played out a perfect preseason friendly against Tottenham Hotspur where they won 4-0 with Harry Kane, Kingsley Coman, Lennart Karl and Jonah Kusi-Asare scoring the goals.
It was a dominant performance from Bayern Munich, so much so that even Tottenham boss Thomas Frank praised the Germans and labelled them as contenders for the Champions League title.
“We were obviously playing a very good team. Bayern in my opinion are one of the teams that probably are favourites to win the Champions League. They hit a good level, we didn’t hit a good level, that’s a bad combination but we will definitely learn from this one,” Frank stated after the defeat.

What did Vincent Kompany say on transfer demands?
Meanwhile, Vincent Kompany was asked about his transfer wishes following Bayern’s win, and the Belgian was totally focused on his existing squad.
“In a healthy club, people communicate daily, and that’s certainly the case with us. We’re always communicating, not just about the squad. But everyone has their role. For me the only important thing is that this squad performs as best as possible,” Kompany told Magenta TV.
“I’ve always said that we have so much talent, the most important thing is that the players are fit. Right now, we’re missing Jamal Musiala, Alphonso Davies, [Hiroki] Itō, and now, hopefully not for long, [Aleksandar] Pavlović. We can make many steps forward when the injured players come back.”
Earlier this week, Bayern bosses attended a meeting discussing the club’s further plans from the transfer window and there were reports that they have come to the conclusion that no urgent signings are needed as of now.
Despite the dominant showing in the preseason clash against Tottenham, Bayern have issues with their squad depth.
So, if they don’t make further signings this summer then Kompany will have to rely on the academy graduates to fill up squad roles and given their performances against Spurs, they look ready for the challenge.
