Bayern Munich’s offseason is hitting its stride as the club scrambled to fill holes in its roster without breaking its bank account. Let’s get into it, this is what we have on tap for this edition of the Bavarian Podcast Works Show:

• Bayern had a plan for Nick Woltemade, but it’s out the window now and how much does the uncertainty surrounding Jamal Musiala’s injury affect the squad planning.
• Breaking down the bizarre situation with Bayern Munich and Liverpool’s Luis Diaz — should the Bavarians continue to swing for the fences with high-priced players or...would a cost-efficient option with a lower risk be a better fit?
• Chelsea’s Christopher Nkunku to Bayern? He is affordable and could fill the voice at the No. 10 spot...but can he play win the way that Bayern Munich requires?

Bayern Munich is still plowing through names to play wing, so let’s focus on those — plus a discussion on Max Eberl’s statements on Kim Min-jae and João Palhinha. Let’s talk about all of that and more on the Bavarian Football Works — Weekend Warm-up Show:

• Real Madrid youngster Rodrygo could be the latest winger on Bayern Munich’s radar. The Brazilian would probably cost a fortune, but could the answer to Bayern’s problems at wing. Is it possible for Bayern to outbid Paris Saint-Germain, Arsenal FC, and Liverpool FC for the potential superstar.
• If not Rodrygo, should Bayern Munich take a look at RB Leipzig attacker Xavi Simons?
• Is Bayern Munich serious about selling João Palhinha and Kim Min-jae? If so, what does that mean for roster moves this summer? RB Leipzig’s Castello Lukeba has been mentioned as a defensive replacement for Min-jae, but Bayern Munich could just not replace Palhinha. Is that smart?
