TOP STORY: Atalanta’s Hojlund on Bayern’s radar

Bayern Munich have added Atalanta‘s Rasmus Hojlund to their list of options as they look to sign a striker in the summer transfer window, according to Sport Bild.

Providing new coach Thomas Tuchel with somebody to score the goals seems to be the club’s priority, with the club already having several players on their list.

The Bavarians have shied away from Napoli frontman Victor Osimhen due to the 24-year-old’s valuation being over €100 million, but remain keen on the Nigeria star.

Eintracht Frankfurt‘s Randal Kolo Muani is also being looked at, although it is felt that the Frenchman doesn’t completely fit the profile of striker they are aiming to bring in.

Then there is Tottenham Hotspur talisman Harry Kane, who has long been linked with Bayern but would prefer to stay in the Premier League.

The 20-year-old Hojlund is now the latest option, but since the Danish youngster has a contract with Atalanta that runs until 2027, it could also take a big chunk of change to sign him.

Hojlund has recorded seven goals and three assists in 26 Serie A appearances for La Dea this season, having moved from Sturm Graz in August 2022.

It is added in the report that Bayern are not interested in Werder Bremen‘s Niclas Fullkrug nor JuventusDusan Vlahovic.
