Bayern Munich are considering making an official bid to Sporting Lisbon to sign Ivorian defender Ousmane Diomande.
The German Bundesliga champions have been linked with a potential move to sign the attacker since the 2024/25 football season ended.
The club believes that securing the services of the 21-year-old defender will improve the defense of the team for the next football season.
Sporting Lisbon have placed a €60 million price tag (approximately £50.6 million or $68.4 million) on the player and are reportedly unwilling to enter negotiations below that figure.
Diomande, who is under contract with the Portuguese club until the summer of 2027, enjoyed an impressive 2024/25 season.
During that season, he made 46 competitive appearances, scoring twice and providing one assist.
His current market value is estimated at €45 million.
It is understood that Bayern Munich plan on making an official bid for the player in the coming days.
