If bayern makes the same transition to 3 cbs and wingbacks, they're going to have to get the right personnel for that formation.
Maybe even convert Douglas Costa to a wingback role.

We have 4 top CBs... If we bring back Badstuber and promote a youngster I think we are settled for that position.
Kimmich and Alaba both have experience playing in midfield. That likely helps them in a wingback role. I also imagine Bernat is probably better at it than he is at LB given his qualities.
Whether Rafinha would make a good backup in such a position, I don't know.

The key to a 3CB formation comes down to the wingbacks - wingbacks are the most important piece to the puzzle in providing balance both to defence and attack. Secondly, the strength is to overpower them in midfield with lots of dynamic midfielders to consistently win possession, intercept, win the physical battles, press and create chances.
With that in mind this is formation I was thinking. 3 - 4 - 2 - 1
Backups
CB - Martinez, Alaba, Kimmich
LWB - Alaba
RWB - Rafinha
CM/CDM - Renato, Martinez, Rudy, Thiago
CAM/RAM/LAM - Robben, Ribery, Coman
ST - Muller, Robben
Assumptions
+ Alaba & Vidal will boss most midfields
+ Kimmich will start becoming a mini-Lahm
+ Martinez will be okay with being the super sub for CB/CMs
+ The LWB we buy (Walker) is WC
+ Lewandowski doesn't get injured.
+ Robben, Ribery & Coman can play centrally and be impactful
Lets assume that we do not consider Ribery & Robben as part of our plans - then its obvious which are the two spots we need to invest in for a WC player.
- LWB
- Attacker that covers both ST & RAM/LAM - Someone like Griezzman, Mbappe, Reus, Missed out on Sane & Draxler ;(
