"If he doesn't play, he's not excited, but he accepts it."

The coach of Bayern Munich, Hansi Flick, recently gave an interview to the German publication Kicker about the situation that Jérôme Boateng is going through.

Thus, the question arises about how far the patience of the 2014 World Cup champion will go with his role as a substitute at the Allianz Arena. According to the information published by Sky Sports, it seems that it will go so far.

And it is that this source points out that the 31-year-old player has the clear intention of leaving the discipline of the Bundesliga champion taking advantage of the current winter market. And even a team interested in offering him a place for the second half of the season has already appeared on the scene.

Specifically, it is Arsenal. The London team is looking for a replacement for Shkodran Mustafi, whose days are numbered in their ranks, and has made the German player a priority. According to Sky, Bayern Munich would accept the player's departure (9 Bundesliga matches to date) in exchange for €15M.

Therefore, with practically the entire winter market ahead, we will have to closely follow this possibility in order to find out if Arsenal finally manages to close the signing of Boateng, who believes that at the age of 31 it is time to face a new challenge in his professional career.
