Bayern Munich are tracking 17-year-old Benfica full-back Daniel Banjaqui ahead of the summer window, and Benfica are already alive to the interest.

According to Sky Sports, Bayern have Banjaqui on a shortlist for the summer window and plan to recruit a new full-back. The report adds that Feyenoord’s 19-year-old Givairo Read is the priority target, with Banjaqui also under consideration.
