Werder Bremen sporting director Frank Baumann has confirmed his club are in talks with Arsenal to sign Serge Gnabry, but has insisted that Bayern Munich are playing no role in the transfer.
It emerged earlier this morning that Bayern Munich are plotting to sign the 21-year-old winger and then loan him out to Werder Bremen for the rest of the season.
And even his father indicated that Gnabry has made up his mind about leaving the Premier League giants and joining the German champions before tomorrow’s transfer deadline.
However, Werder Bremen have claimed that they are currently in advanced negotiations with the Gunners over a move for Gnabry, and have already agreed personal terms with the player.
Club sporting director Baumann further stated that Bayern Munich are not playing any role in their attempts to sigh the German winger from the north Londoners.
