ToggleWHAT HAPPENED?
Bayern rejected a loan offer from Juventus for full-back Boey on the final day of the summer transfer window, leaving the Italian giants without a new right-back. According to Fabrizio Romano, Juventus approached the Bundesliga champions to secure the 24-year-old on a temporary deal, but the bid was turned down by the Bayern hierarchy.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
The rejection comes despite Boey having been considered a potential departure candidate for much of the summer. However, Bayern coach Vincent Kompany is reportedly a fan of the player and was keen to keep him for squad depth. Boey has endured a difficult start to his career in Germany since his €30 million move from Galatasaray in January 2024, struggling for consistent form and regular starts. Keeping him provides cover at right-back, a position of need with Josip Stanisic currently deputising on the left for the injured Alphonso Davies.

DID YOU KNOW?
So far this season, Boey has featured in all four of Bayern Munich's competitive matches, but his only start came in the first round of the DFB-Pokal against lower-league opposition Wehen Wiesbaden.

WHAT NEXT
With the transfer window now closed, Boey will remain in Munich to fight for his place under Kompany. The French full-back, whose contract runs until 2028, will need to impress in training and take any opportunities he gets to challenge for a regular starting role. Should his situation not improve by the winter, speculation over his future is likely to resurface ahead of the January transfer window.
