Dayot Upamecano’s agent has hinted that his client will choose between two Premier League clubs and Bayern Munich.
The RB Leipzig centre-back is a man in demand due to a clause in his contract that will make him available for £38m this summer.
Volker Struth, Upamecano’s agent, is said to have revealed that his client has a choice between Bayern and two unnamed Premier League clubs.
Struth was spotted at Bayern’s offices last week, and the Bundesliga champions are favourites to win the race for his signature.
A move to the Premier League cannot be ruled out, though, with the report stating that Upamecano is set to make his decision “soon”.
Thomas Tuchel’s appointment at Chelsea is not thought to affect the club’s pursuit of the central defender.
“Of course we will take it up, not only with respect to this personnel matter, but also essentially at any positions we want and have to do something,” he said.
“The player will be in Leipzig at least until the end of the season.”
“Of course we are thinking about him,” he said on Friday. “We had a good meeting with his agents yesterday. Let’s see what happens.”
