Garudayaksa FC Overview

France have suffered another major blow to their defensive ranks following the news that Dayot Upamecano has left the national team camp. The Bayern Munich defender was granted permission to depart just hours after Les Bleus slumped to a disappointing defeat against Italy.

Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest are leading the Premier League chase to sign highly-rated Santos midfielder Gabriel Bontempo during the January transfer window. The English duo face stiff competition from Newcastle United for the 21-year-old Brazilian, who also attracted an enquiry from Bayern Munich over the summer.

Barcelona midfielder Gavi has no intention of leaving the Catalan giants despite attracting transfer interest from European heavyweights Bayern Munich and Napoli. Although the 22-year-old Spain international has struggled for regular starts this season, he remains determined to stay at Camp Nou and win back his place in the starting line-up.

Bayern Munich have been warned that they stand no chance of prising winger Desire Doue away from Paris Saint-Germain after being priced out of a potential deal. Despite the Bundesliga champions holding a long-standing admiration for the 21-year-old France international, his soaring valuation in the French capital has put a future transfer out of reach.
