Bayern Munich are trying to overtake Manchester United in the pursuit of Eintracht Frankfurt winger Ante Rebic as his agent takes a flight to Germany for talks.
Following a strong World Cup, Rebic has attracted attention from some of the big wigs of European football this summer and is expected to leave Eintracht Frankfurt.
Arsenal and Tottenham are keen on taking him to England, but Manchester United are believed to be the club who have shown serious interest in signing the Croatian World Cup star.
Jose Mourinho’s side are believed to be in pole position to sign Rebic, but it has been claimed Bayern Munich are now trying to push their way ahead in the race to sign the winger.
According to Italian broadcaster SportItalia, Fali Ramadani, Rebic’s agent, has cut short his trip to Italy and has left for Germany to conduct talks over the future of the 24-year-old Croatian.
The German champions are trying to overtake Manchester United in the race for Rebic and are set to meet the player’s agent to understand the margins of a proposed deal.
Eintracht Frankfurt are claimed to be asking for a fee of around €40m to €50m for the player.
It remains to be seen how Manchester United react to Bayern Munich’s aggressive move in the market for Rebic.
