Bayern Munich continue to be a model of consistency, and are on course to win a record-extending tenth consecutive Bundesliga title.The 2020 Champions League winners remain a force to be reckoned with in Europe too. Drawn against RB Salzburg in this year's Round of 16, the Bavarians are favourites to proceed to the quarter-finals for the ninth time in the last ten seasons.Bundesliga English@Bundesliga_EN🏆 @FCBayernEN — 2020/21 #Bundesliga Champions! ✌️❤️8:53 AM · May 8, 202157091296🏆 @FCBayernEN — 2020/21 #Bundesliga Champions! ✌️❤️ https://t.co/Gh5mSTawHSBayern Munich are still reliant on their veteran corePredicting what Bayern Munich's squad could look like in a few years is not easy. Manuel Neuer, Robert Lewandowski and Thomas Muller are still performing at an elite level, and are among the club's most important players. However, the trio are all past the age of 30, which means it is only natural Bayern Munich will have to start planning for the future.The Bavarians also have a well-documented history of raiding their Bundesliga rivals for established players who are in their prime. Although the poaching of talent raises questions about domestic parity and competitiveness, such acquisitions allow Bayern to remain consistent in the Champions League. The most recent example of that is their signing of 27-year-old Marcel Sabitzer for £14 million from RB Leipzig earlier this year.Nonetheless, German football is famous for its ability to produce elite talent, and Bayern Munich's player development is no different. On that note, here's a look at five players who could play kry roles for the Bavarian giants in the future:#5 Dayot UpamecanoBayern Munich centre-back Dayot Upamecano looks to play a passBayern Munich needed defensive reinforcements coming into the 2021-22 season.
