According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Bayern Munich goalkeeper Daniel Peretz has successfully completed his medical examinations ahead of a move to Southampton. The 25-year-old Israeli international will join the Premier League side on a loan deal for the remainder of the 2025/26 season. Notably, the agreement includes a purchase option set at €8.5 million, potentially making the move permanent in the summer.

Peretz spent the first half of this season on loan at Hamburger SV in the 2. Bundesliga, but his opportunities were extremely limited. He managed only two appearances, both of which came in the DFB-Pokal (German Cup), failing to secure the starting spot in league play. Despite his lack of recent minutes, Southampton has moved quickly to secure his services as they look to bolster their goalkeeping department for the crucial second half of the campaign.

The move represents a significant step for Peretz, who joined Bayern Munich in 2023 but has struggled to find consistent game time behind veteran Manuel Neuer and other senior options. While his current market value is estimated at €2 million, the inclusion of an €8.5 million buy-out clause suggests that Bayern and Southampton both see significant upside in his potential. For the Saints, Peretz offers a high-upside reinforcement as they navigate their domestic challenges.
