I've only seen him linked to Bayern on one (questionable) website, (fansfc) but as an American I have to bring him up. I think he'd be a great signing for Bayern! He's a young central midfielder with pace and good vision, I don't watch much Heerenveen (meaning none) but 17 goals from midfield this season speaks for itself. What I do know about is that he's usually the best player on the pitch for the US National Team in my opinion. Maybe it's just that I'd like to see someone from my country playing for Bayern, but from what I've seen I think he could really help out. Get him, Uli!
Yeah like I said I don't think there's any truth to the rumor, but he's young and he'll give everything he has all the time. I would gladly take him, but not if Heerenveen is asking too much.

I believe that at his age (20) Michael Bradley has enough talent to sign for Bayern if there was room for him, but Bayern will go after a World Class proven CMF at this point.
Michael Bradley will leave Heerenveen this summer (that is a fact) but the Bayern thing is a a plain rumor. The Bundesliga sides that are reported to have contacted the player's agent are Stuttgart and Werder Bremen. The EPL sides Blackburn Rovers, Everton, Manchester United, Sunderland, and Aston Villa and Celtic in Scotland have also held conversations with his agents.
The last word is that Blackburn Rovers has the best monetary package on the table but Bradley is more inclined for Everton with the second best offer and an attractive 5th place on the EPL that will put Bradley automatically in European Competition.
IMO, at 20 and full of talent he should avoid going to clubs such Manchester United or Bayern Munich; he could spend the next five precious seasons on the bench and become the next Roque Santa Cruz.
Good point, Jorge. Maybe he'll sign for Bremen, score against us, and then we'll sign him. (Since we all know the easiest way to get Bayern to want to sign you is by scoring against them!)
