Bayern Munich have commenced negotiations to sign German defender of Ivorian descent, Jonathan Tah.
Tah, 29, is set to leave Bayer Leverkusen when the 2024/25 football season comes to an end.
The highly-rated centre-back has already confirmed his decision to end his stay at Leverkusen.
He believes that after spending years at the club, it is time to pursue a different challenge.
With his exit imminent, several clubs have been linked with a move to sign the defender.
Among the clubs include Bayern Munich who are looking for a new defensive leader for the 2025/26 football season.
Despite being favourites to sign Jonathan Tah, Bayern face strong competition from English Premier League outfit Manchester United.
Today, sources have revealed that the German Bundesliga runaway champions have opened talks to push for the deal.
Bayern Munich sporting director Max Eberl and head coach Vincent Kompany are said to have personally spoken to the defender about the desire to bring him on board.
Meanwhile, Barcelona are also keen on signing Jonathan Tah.
