Arjen Robben is recovering from a thigh injury and has declared he won't be staying with the club for the next campaign. There have been many suitors for the Dutchman with Inter the most recent to contact the player's representatives. The Flying Dutchman will soon turn 35 and is likely to go back to the Netherlands for the rest of his playing career.
Robben arrived in Bayern Munich in the summer of 2009 from the Spanish giants Real Madrid for a reported fee of €25m. The Flying Dutchman has been serving for the past 10 years and has proved to be a priceless asset for The Bavarians. He has bagged an incredible 143 goals and 101 assists in the 305 appearances for the German giants.
Arjen Robben has been an influential player for the German Giants and has helped them to win many trophies. The left-footed wizard has the capability to cut inside from the right flank and find the top corner. Although he is irreplaceable, someone has to fill the void that is going to be there after he leaves the Bavarians in the summer.
#3 Malcom
Malcom arrived in Barcelona in summer for a reported fee of €41m from Bordeaux. Ever since his move to the Catalans, playing time has been hard to come by for the Brazilian. The 21-year-old has scored 2 goals in 9 appearances and has only got 296 minutes to play under Ernesto Valverde.
The former Bordeaux man has been struggling to get into the first team ever since his arrival as the likes of Lionel Messi and Ousmane Dembele are the most obvious choices for the coach. A player of Malom's quality should be playing every week and is of first team quality for many big teams.
Malcom likes to cut in from the right flank and has a peach of a left-foot that can easily unsettle even the toughest of defenses. The €40 million rated right-winger is very much capable of scoring goals from long range and is known for his free-kick taking abilities too. He can easily fill in the boots of Arjen Robben and would surely be a success in the Bundesliga.
#2 Cengiz Ünder
Cengiz Ünder arrived in AS Roma in the summer of 2017 for €13.5 million from the Turkish club Basaksehir. Ever since his arrival in Italy, Ünder has grown in reputation and has sparked interest from many big clubs like Arsenal. The Turkish international scored 7 goals in Serie A last season. Ünder is capable of playing as an attacking midfielder and has the ability to open up defenses with his dribbling and creative awareness.
The 21-year-old right winger is a left-footed player who likes to cut inside like Robben. Cengiz Ünder has bagged 3 goals and 5 assists in Seria A in 14 appearances this season. Ünder has also scored 3 goals in 5 appearances in the Uefa Champions League this season, helping AS Roma to qualify for the Round of Sixteen.
The €35 million-rated winger is a hot prospect for the future and has shown great promise with his performances for the giallorossi. He could be helpful to fill in the void left by Arjen Robben. The 21-year-old is still young and is yet to reach his true potential and the Munich outfit could surely get the best out of him.
#1 Bernardo Silva
Bernardo Silva has been a revelation since his arrival in the summer of 2017. Silva arrived at the Etihad Stadium for a reported fee of €50 million from AS Monaco. The Little Portuguese has been showing his class consistently this season. With the likes of Kevin de Bruyne and David Silva been injured this season, Bernardo Silva has been the most creative player for Manchester City.
Bernardo Silva is a right-winger by trade but has shown his versatility playing efficiently in the midfield three. The former Monaco man has bagged 5 goals and 6 assists in 20 appearances this season in the Premier League. Silva ran an astonishing 13.7 km against Liverpool, the most this season in the Premier League, showing he is not only about attacking.
The €65 million rated player is the most appropriate player that can replace the Flying Dutchman and can also prove to be a better player in the future. The 24-year-old has a contract with Manchester City until the summer of 2022 and will not be easy to get him on their books, but if Bayern can sign Bernardo Silva, they'll surely have a future superstar on their books.
If Bayern Munich can sign any of these three players, they'll surely have a more talented squad and would also help them to fill the space left by the Incredible Arjen Robben.
