Bayern Munich target Kyle Walker with Benjamin Pavard leaving

Bayern Munich target Kyle Walker with Benjamin Pavard leaving

Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich have Kyle Walker on their radar this summer, according to Sky Germany.

The Bavarians are anticipating the departure of Benjamin Pavard, and they need someone to replace him.

One of the names on their shortlist is Walker, who is considering a move away from Manchester City.

The 33-year-old was reportedly unhappy with his limited role this season.

Pep Guardiola dropped him for Manuel Akanji in the Champions League final, which was seemingly the final straw for Walker.

He has bagged six goals and 18 assists in 254 appearances for City and has contributed massively to their success in recent years.

Walker has been linked with a return to Sheffield United, but the chance to join Bayern could be tough to ignore.

Bayern recently rejected the chance to sign City right-back Joao Cancelo following his six-month loan spell, but they could move for his teammate.

Bayern are also trying to get a deal over the line for Napoli defender Kim Min-jae.

Min-Jae would replace Lucas Hernandez, who has asked to leave for Paris Saint-Germain.

They are looking for a defensive midfielder to allow Joshua Kimmich more license to push forward.

West Ham United’s Declan Rice has been linked with a move, but Arsenal are the favourites to secure his services.

Bayern could boost their transfer budget by selling Sadio Mane, who has failed to impress since joining the club from Liverpool.

Mane had a major fall-out with Leroy Sane last season, and he is surplus to requirements at the Allianz Arena.
