New rival for Bayern: Arsenal courting top DFB talent | OneFootball

FC Bayern Munich are always on the lookout for young talent to strengthen their squad, and the competition for a top talent is getting fiercer

Kennet Eichhorn from Hertha BSC is one of the discoveries of the season. At the age of 16, the midfielder made his mark in the Bundesliga 2 and took on responsibility at the capital city club

He has missed the last few weeks due to injury, but is now back on the pitch and wants to help his Hertha side in the final weeks of the season. FC Bayern have been a candidate for a transfer of the midfielder for some time, even though they have already bought back Noel Aseko via a buy-back option

FC Bayern: New rival for Eichhorn

The plan for Aseko is to take a closer look at him during preparations. If they feel he is not mature enough, they may loan him out again. But back to Eichhorn. He is still an issue in Munich and, according to Sky, they have already met with the player’s side. They discussed possible prospects, but not yet details

FC Barcelona, Real Madrid, Chelsea and PSG are also said to have the player in their sights, while Bayer Leverkusen have also made concrete attempts to sign him. Eichhorn has a release clause of ten to twelve million euros in his Hertha contract, which is particularly interesting because it would also allow a club to buy and loan him

According to a report from SportWitness in England, Arsenal FC are now also planning to get heavily involved in the poker game. The Gunners generally have their sights set on several young talents, and they also see a need in midfield. Manchester United are also said to have opportunities, but the Gunners have reportedly discussed Eichhorn very intensively

In any case, FC Bayern should promptly discuss internally how they want to proceed with Eichhorn. They have their own talents and there are also good, young midfielders in European soccer, but the Hertha star is one of the most promising projects in German soccer. And the record champions have always liked to have them in their ranks.
