FC Bayern gave up a few players from the second row and one or two young talents in the summer. In the case of Joshua Zirkzee and Tanguy Nianzou, for example, it is clear that Munich have a buyback clause. But even with Chris Richards there is still a way back.

FC Bayern has not yet given up defensive talent Chris Richards, who was once signed from the USA. The central defender, who switched to Crystal Palace this summer for 15 million euros (plus bonus payments) due to the enormous competition, could return to the Isar. As reported by BILD football boss Christian Falk, Bayern have a buyback option. However, the 22-year-old is still struggling on the island. So far he has only made three Premier League appearances in which he has only played as a joker.

According to Falk, however, there is no buyback option for namesake Omar Richards. The left-back joined Premier League promoted Nottingham Forest in the summer but has not yet played a game due to injury. In addition, the club also put Renan Lodi in front of the ex-Munich player. FC Bayern will not be happy about that, who would collect extra if Richards played 60 percent of the games.

On the other hand, things are going fantastic for offensive talent Malik Tillman. The 20-year-old American shot Celtic Glasgow into the main round in the CL qualifier and is already being celebrated by the fans. The player is currently playing on loan in Scotland, but according to Falk it is "very likely" that the purchase option will be exercised. This should be around seven million euros. According to transfermarkt, the Munich team also has a buyback clause at Tillman. However, Christian Falk did not comment on this in the "English Week" podcast.
