Report: Bayern Munich are scouting in South America again
Briefly

Bayern Munich has traditionally been wary of signing South American players due to the negative experience with Breno in 2008. His injuries and erratic behavior led to a notorious incident where he set his house on fire and was subsequently imprisoned, resulting in the termination of his contract. Since then, Bayern has primarily sourced Brazilian talent from European clubs rather than South America itself. However, recent reports indicate a potential shift, with the club now scouting South American players, suggesting they may soon break this long-standing trend.
Bayern Munich has historically been reluctant to sign South American players due to past experiences, particularly the tumultuous signing of Breno, which ended in disaster.
The incident with Breno in 2008, involving his struggles and subsequent criminal act of burning his house, has colored Bayern's approach to South American signings since.
Despite their hesitations, Bayern Munich has shown renewed interest in scouting South American markets, indicating a potential shift in their recruitment strategy.
Rumors of Bayern targeting players like Palmeiras' Estêvão Willian suggest they are reconsidering their long-held aversion to signing talents directly from South America.
