Not long ago, the Germany international was declared off-limits by coach Felix Magath, however, since the Schalke boss has been sacked, and die Knappen are in need of money, a move appears to be likely.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/201ed65bget.media_1096-150x90.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Read more:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/foreign.peacefmonline.com\/sports\/201103\/146423.php\" title=\"Philipp Lahm To Move To Left Of Defence As Bayern Munich Search For A Right-Back\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Philipp Lahm To Move To Left Of Defence As Bayern Munich Search For A Right-Back<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> As they begin early preparations for next season, Bayern Munich have begun their search for a right-sided defender, reports from Germany suggest. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-327462","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
