Goretzka’s contract expires in the summer and Bayern have confirmed it will not be extended, leaving the 31‑year‑old free to seek a new club. Reports say he is leaning toward a move to England, with Arsenal among the clubs interested.
Leverkusen, Atletico Madrid and AC Milan are also watching his situation, but the German club’s high wage demands could complicate a transfer. Goretzka’s experience and physical presence would add depth to any midfield.
