Ryan Gravenberch gives transfer hope to Liverpool with warning to Bayern Munich

Ryan Gravenberch insists he is prepared to leave Bayern Munich this summer if he does not receive assurances over his playing time next season.

The 21-year-old joined Bayern last year in a €18.5 million (£16m) deal from Ajax but failed to secure a regular role in his first season in Germany.

Gravenberch started five games for Bayern in all competitions, two of which came after Thomas Tuchel was brought in as head coach at the end of March.

Liverpool have already held discussions with Gravenberch’s representatives but Bayern are yet to indicate that they are willing to sell the midfielder this summer.

However, the Netherlands international has made it clear that he will not accept a bit-part role for a second successive campaign.

‘I expected to play more minutes than I did. I thought I would get some more chances,’ Gravenberch told ESPN.

‘It’s about just wanting to play, that’s the most important thing at my age.

‘I hope this can happen at Bayern Munich, otherwise we’ll just have to look further.

‘I told everyone that I don’t want another year like that. Of course you can’t always be in the starting XI, but you can still play regularly, you can get a lot of minutes.’
