Choupo-Moting was not their plan initially but even his sudden shine could not save Bayern Munich in the past season. He is not a striker who can play well in big matches and we saw that weakness in World Cup 2022 with Cameroon and with Bayern Munich in Champions League.
I think that Choupo Moting is a very good player and i am surprised that he never really made it into the starting eleven for a very big club in his career. He has everything that a player needs to be a great striker and in addition to that he also has a very smooth technique in my opinion. When Lewandowski was injured two seasons ago Choupo Moting showed a really great performance. Sadly he was injured during large parts of the second round of the Bundesliga in the last season so he could not really show his capabilities there.
That being said, he is already 33 years old so Bayern definitely needs a new number 9 now that really had the potential to replace Lewandowski over a whole season.
For me, the only person who can replace Lewandowski's position is Harry Kane, but if Bayern Munich manages to take over Harry Kane, it's because there are so many people who are after this reliable player, even at a very high price.
Bayern Munich have made offers to Harry Kane several times, but until now there has been no recent news from there whether Harry Kane has accepted the offer or indeed Bayern Munich must look for other reliable players again.
If you look at some of this news, Bayern Munich is really busy looking for the best players, but there is no certainty about this news.
Undoubtedly, Harry Kane's striking prowess in front of the goal makes him a perfect match to fill in the vacuum that's was created by the departure of the lethal Robert Lewandowski.
Harry Kane's days as a hot striker is nearing the end and if he fails to force a move away from Tottenham this summer, he might play for them through the rest of his career
