Bayern Cool on Luis Henrique After Kompany’s Scouting Trip—Inter Now Frontrunners

For several weeks, Bayern Munich were strongly rumored to be eyeing Olympique Marseille winger Luis Henrique. Buzz intensified when head coach Vincent Kompany and sporting director Christoph Freund were spotted in the stands during Le Classique against Paris Saint-Germain—seemingly a scouting mission.

However, that visit may have dampened Bayern’s enthusiasm. According to reporting from Hanna Rein and Philipp Kessler (via @iMiaSanMia), the club has since stepped back from the chase. Kompany, it seems, wasn’t fully sold on the Brazilian’s performance and has opted not to pursue a formal offer.

Now, the momentum has shifted to Inter Milan—ironically, the very club that recently knocked Bayern out of the Champions League. With Bayern backing off, the Italian side is now leading the race to land the 22-year-old. For Bayern, the search for a wide attacker continues.
