5 potential replacements for Lewandowski at Bayern Munich

#3 Kasper Dolberg (Ajax AFC & Denmark)

Dubbed the new Van Basten, Dolberg would represent a long-term gamble with huge potential

The baby-faced assassin really came to the attention of the footballing world in the 2016-2017 season as his 6 goals helped propel Ajax all the way to the final in last season’s Europa League, only to be beaten by Manchester United.

Following his breakout last year, he has failed to hit the same heights this season which is to be expected given his very tender age and developing abilities

A striker cut from the same cloth as Lewandowski, he is not the quickest player in the world, but his lack of pace is more than made up for by his sense of positioning, predatory finishing, ability to assist others and a good sense of responsibility.

His age and ceiling for improvement mean that he will fit in with Bayern Munich’s recent policy of buying young, exciting stars for a squad that is already in need of regeneration.
