Bayern Munich sold youngster Nestory Irankunda this summer to Watford, but nested in the deal was a favorable buy-back option for the Bavarians. That's according to a report from Sport Bild, as captured by @iMiaSanMia_GER: Bayern has a buy-back clause for Nestory Irankunda of 4.5-5 million €. He was sold to FC Watford in the summer for 3 million €. [Bayern-Insider, @cfbayern, @altobelli13]

I'm in awe of that strike. I saw him do a couple of those in training. He's a special talent, he has a special shot, and we'll talk about all the great things that he does with the ball, but what is most pleasing for me is how hard he worked. That gets overlooked a fair bit, but what I've seen this year at Watford, the boy is maturing and understands that you have to work for the team and you have to defend.

It was a very hard decision (to leave Bayern Munich) but for me, my biggest goal is to play in a World Cup and the 2026 World Cup is just around the corner, so I have to be playing minutes and I wasn't playing (in Germany), Irankunda told Sky Sport.

Bayern Munich's Nestory Irankunda is likely on his way to Watford, seen as another prospect that could not make it in Bavaria.

Nestory Irankunda's transfer to Bayern Munich was anticipated for 18 months before it officially occurred when he turned 18, reflecting significant excitement around his talent.
