According to Foot Mercato, Bayern Munich this week resumed contact with the camp of 16-year-old Manchester United starlet JJ-Gabriel and hopes to persuade him to join. Gabriel wants to leave Manchester United, and thanks to his Irish and Cypriot background, he is eligible to join an EU club. Kompany admires his qualities, and Bayern Munich plans to impress him with development prospects and playing time. Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain are also interested in him, while Barcelona has publicly withdrawn from the race.

According to Sky Sports, Gabriel's representatives are demanding a seven-figure annual salary, a condition Bayern Munich is unwilling to meet. Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen have also reportedly reduced their interest. Manchester United refuses to let the player leave, which prevents him from joining other English clubs until next summer. Although Gabriel appeared in Manchester United's official team photo for the 2024-2025 season and Carrick used him during preseason preparations, he could still depart.
